CHECK OUR OWN DEVICES: BULLETS IN MADISON AND THE STORY OF
LOVE IS A NOISE. FROM THE BACK COVER:
AT ONCE A DOCUMENTARY AND PHILOSOPHICAL STATEMENT, We
Can Check Our Own Devices is the story of Bullets in Madison's
attempt to make their second record, Love is a Noise. As the
foreword states, 'Not only do we have the courage and heart to try
the damn thing a second time, but to try to do it better. And there, I
believe is the real story--a story about coming back, starting from
scratch, with no pressures from anyone but ourselves, with no one
and nothing else to help and guide us but our own devices.'
Incorporating e-mails, IM's, and daily journal entries kept in secret by
Aaron Sandberg, We Can Check Our Own Devices examines the rigors
of self-recording, the strains of dealing with four distinct
personalities, and what it means to be a band searching for truth in
sound. Within the pages are bits of philosophy, mission statements,
and insightful musings on a band striving for a definitive sound in the
many faces of the current music scene.
