"Haunting A Ghost":  John and I had written a bunch of songs together, and every new song was getting increasingly better, and  this is the song that I realized we were hitting a stride with. Everything vocal in this song: phrasing...melody...lyrics...all came very quickly and natural to me and that's usually when you know it's good. Sometimes when I hear music I feel like I can hear the melody in the music, like when its loud, you begin to hear the melody creating itself, singing itself, especially with distorted guitars, in the overtones and undertones of the music. Then I feel like I just decipher it and pull it out and there it is. That's how the chorus of this song was. I listened to it, and the vocal melody was just nested in there, sitting right there. The chord progression is really great, and the bassline underneath from Jeff really gives it a feel that I love, like a boat going up and down in the sea or something. Lyrically the song just talks about waking up and realizing that all of a sudden you are in this new phase of your life, and its a little confusing and maybe you aren't sure what to make of it or what to do with it, but rather than be nostalgic for the past and trying to hang on to memories, you embrace your situation and would never ever go back. In my case it applied to a personal relationship ending/beginning that instantly signified a changing of eras for me as a person.

I can sum this song down to one word "AMAZING" (thats right with all caps too) I was hooked from the start and it never lost me through the whole song. I am so stoked that November is right around the corner.

Holy cow, what a song. The whole thing is amazing. At 223 I started getting that crazy feeling like I was holding onto an electric fence, and then BOOM. I like the lyrical explanation as well. It's comforting that there are people who look forward, instead of having to sit through 5 minutes of someone dwelling on the past. I am so stoked for this album. I need a pre-order.

Greg Puciato, you're simply the man.
I love your lyrical style, your vocal execution is perfect and you always get across emotion so well, you can hear it all in your voice bro!
P.S The DEP albums have got me through some fucked up stages of my life, so thank you personally for being there to listen to :) Whats even better is you're not up your arse like so many guys in amazing bands, you're down to earth and have time for your followers and fans, and thats what makes you a great person too bro.
Also, i really respect your perspective on approaching songs and writing lyrics, i see it all in a very similar way even though i share lyrical writing duties with my vocallist (also a fan!), as i'm the drummer!

Keep it up man, you're an ongoing inspiration to me :)
