Welcome back to Label, the story's rumors and legends of tooth and nail records.

I'm your host, Matt Carter, and today we're going to spend some time with Garrett and Thomas from Silent Planet.

Silent Planet has been one of the very successful parts of the Solid State lineup in recent years,

I think, well, they're the same as me.

I don't think age difference, really.

Something is generational about that.

And the technology has really been the thing that's changed

that marks each generation to me is like the first generation
