Andy Marino Guitar And Matt Lambert Bass First Collaborated In The Deeply Unsettling Hardcore Band Sayonara. SleepCrime's Debut Album Everything Secret Degenerates Is The Nine-Song Result Of More Than A Year's Worth Of Recording In Such Exotic Locales As Brooklyn's Savaria Studios The Living Room Of An Upstate Ski Lodge And Lauren's Bedroom Where She Functioned As The Sole Engineer And Arbiter Of Bad Takes. The Album's Title Is Taken From A Declassified FBI File Documenting The Use Of Murderers As Informants A Policy That Informed The Band's Self-Taught DIY Digital Recording Process In Ways Too Disturbing To Address Here.
