question submitted by toad:

when you sit down to write songs for a new album...do you think of it as an album as a whole as you write? or do you go one song at a time, letting them fall into their place as an album?

response from trent:

i start with a format or concept for a group of songs and subject matter. then i usual just write songs referring to that and see how they start to align with the concept. things always change along the way.
