In celebration of the release, the band also released the visualizer for the EP title track "Heavy Water". Speaking on today's news, guitarist and vocalist Christian Martuccishares:
"I’m so glad Dave called me to be a part of this. I had a great time working with everyone. There was no overthinking and no agenda… just friends making noise. I loved every minute of it."
Billy Gould commented: "The pandemic had a few bright spots for me… and this was one. Great bunch of guys who went into this with genuine enthusiasm. What’s not to like?"
Dave Raun said: "Having had played with all these guys separately before, I was really excited about us all being a part of the same project. We just made music we wanted to make with zero pressure or expectation and lots of laughs. Everybody just brought their thing to the table and it’s a perfect blend."
Steve Shepard also chimed in: "I have no idea how I fooled these guys to play music with me. Every step of the process, from planning to writing to recording, has been a blast."
