~Greg Richling~

"This band basically learned to play together on the road over the last year and a half, and that feels good. It feels like a band. We were going through a lot of changes during the making of the album which is the way things go, but it feels good to have the same group of people working together for a long time; you sort of read each other better. You always hope that happens."

“I've always felt Jakob's had his own voice as a songwriter,” Richling declares with a brotherly pride. “You see things, people saying, `He's not his dad.' My reaction is, `You're not either, man. Who the hell are you to say that? You're holding him to a standard that you can't hold anybody up to.' RS 852

“All of the pressure Jakob feels comes from himself,” “He knows what being great is. Jakob has his own rating system.” -Greg, talking about Jake  RS 852
