Preoccupations: Stimulation

When Preoccupations decided to write and record its new album, each of the four members was going through his own growing pains, plus each had all moved to different cities. While the rest of their lives were coming undone, the band held them together and gave them the respite they needed. Fitting song titles indicate their emotional states: Anxiety, Monotony, Degraded and Today's Top Tune, "Stimulation."
