We wrote Time to Pretend in our senior year at college, and the music was inspired by a praying mantis we had in our house. She laid eggs and died, and we laid the egg case on this kinda model pirate ship on the mantlepiece, and the egs hatched and all these baby praying mantises were climbing up the rigging of the ship, and it was pretty crazy… uhm so the music was inspired by our praying mantis that liked to dance to The Clash.
