Spirits in the Celestial Plane

I watched you at the end of the driveway Staring at the sunset again And we sat at the end of our road As the lights all glow When we watched as the ships fly by And the moon is in our eyes As they looked down at what they know Something we don't know And I wonder what they feel As they watch us stare at them And now we know what they don't know And when we meet each other, then what would we know?
2.
I don't want to have to leave everyone But I'm making some emergency reports Don't let everything fall apart Wherever you go Never forget what we've done I've been here for the ride The memories I am giving you Don't let them degrade History cant lose what we have done Wherever you go Never forget what we've done I've been here for the ride Wherever you go Never forget what we've done I've been here for the ride I've been here for the ride I've been here for the ride I've been here for the ride

The flames fill my body The marks on my skin The lace that lines the fabric i feel your hands again Nervous and confused I’m not the greatest, you can tell You look at me for the last time I know that face so well

We are not what you're thinking We are not what you're thinking In the corner of the furthest places you can go We are the beings who have control over what you know Pulling the strings behind everything that you see And any moment at our behest we can cut the strings At the center of everything we are hard at work Monitors glow showing video of all the little worlds One by one we check it all, viewing on your lives A catalogue of dimensions underneath our claws We have seen you wandering through all these dimensions You do not know how much further you can head off to You will uncover something that you never should have And we will have to intervene before you release havoc In a single second we could sever your ties Before you can discover what before you lies We keep the balance of dimensions always on check We can't let somebody accidentally release something that's kept Under lock and key for the safety of the dimensional plane And if it does we'll intervene before things get worse We are not what you're thinking We are not what you're thinking We are not what you're thinking Now rise. Let us have a good look at you, interloper.

So, you think that you are all above it all? What do you mean that you don't know at all? Listen to what you have to say All that you know is something that you should be ashamed Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Take what you will, I don't know what to do What is it that you think you need to do? All that you've said seems to be a lie now We few think it's time to know what to do Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Take back all that you said to me Find a real truth What is it that you need to do? All you said, "I don't know what to do anymore." I haven't heard from you I can't believe what you've said I swear you're working for someone we can't ever trust I swear you're working for someone we can never trust I swear you're working for someone we can never trust I swear you're working for someone we can never trust Bring him outside during the night Time to take out the man Bring him outside during the night I swear, you can't be with us anymore Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Oh, isn't it a lovely night? Oh, isn't it a lovely night?

The morning seemed so hopeful The light was blinding Beating through the clouds The air felt warm A welcoming change From all the cold Yet, as the day went on It all just changed And everything went dark The atmosphere turned bitter And the sun was behind the trees I see lights in the distance Good evening, Muskegon What else have you got for me? The streets are all burning As the furies charge And the thrones set destruction on this night And just this night I'm crashing through another dimension Just for something else to crash on down The night felt so cold I waited for it all to go away The visions of panicked people Is still fresh in my mind I find a bench in this weird world And rest my body for a while I wake up to figures standing over me They stare at me with luminescent eyes They pick me up from my shoulders I squint my eyes Struggling to adjust to the brightness Feathers blow around as I am brought through some rift And all I can think of is a world Where I am alone with no one else Good morning, Muskegon What else have you got for me? The streets are all gone As the furies charge And the thrones carry me to somewhere else And I just want to disappear Into a different world On my own accord

about

Spirits in the Celestial Plane is the first of a trilogy of albums for I Remember 2006 that explores a shoegaze/slowcore genre. At forty-six minutes, it's the shortest IR06 album that the bandmates have made.



Rafe's Note: This album was made to be a short one (for us), but in doing so, it ended up feeling compact, and we plan to make this another trilogy, like the Friendship trilogy, or the Drawn Covers Trilogy, where we get to explore this shoegaze and slowcore sound. Every album in this trilogy I plan to be around the same length. No album in this trilogy do I want to go over fifty minutes.

For me, the biggest influence towards me working on this album was Beach House. I'm still on that Beach House kick, and also a recent Wye Oak kick. The decision to have this be the start of a new trilogy is because I believe we still have more we can do with this sound. I also have other ideas planned for it.

I would like to thank Will and his family, my friends and family, Beach House, and everyone who's stuck around. The last week has been pretty alright. It's time to ride this trilogy.

-Rafe



Will’s Note: Personally, I was heavily inspired by Duster and Slint while making this album. I had a lot of fun making this album, we used a drum looper, which is very new for us.

I wrote a track on this album that’s very personal to me. I was very inspired by Good Morning, Captain by Slint while recording it. At the end I kinda just lost it. I don’t really wanna talk about what the song’s about, it’s up for interpretation.

I’d like to thank God, Rafe, my grandparents, Madie, Lilly, Amber, Nico, 12281999, Nei, Shay, Salt, LV, Midnight, Rae, Taylor/Cosmo, Sanso, Rivers, Anjel, Hunter, Carter, Kaelynn, and Jadin.

Godspeed,

-Will
