The Self Produced Album Was Recorded By Menno Bakker NRA Undeclinable And Alejandro Londoño Agresión Mixed By Clif Norrell REM The Pixies Rollins Faith No More Mansun Jeff Buckley In Los Angeles And Mastered At John Golden Mastering. Singer Remi About The Recordings ’This Was Definitely A New Experience For Us. By Recording In Different Studios And With Different People We Got The Best Of Both Worlds In This Recording! Although It Was Extremely Fun To Produce It Ourselves It Was A Lot More Work Than We Anticipated And We Couldn’t Have Done It Without The Help Of Menno And Alejandro. Of Course After Recording Two Previous Albums With A Man Like Clif Taught Us A Lot About Making A Record.’ GREEN LIZARD’s Previous Albums Were Put Out By Sony Music And Sold More Than 22.000 Copies Just In The Netherlands. Singer Remi 'We Never Planned On Signing To A Major But Our Label Got Bought Up By Sony Music. We Sold Pretty Well And The Last Record 'Newborn' Was Supposed To Be A European Sony Signing But That Never Happened. We Get Offers To Tour In Europe And The States All The Time But We Never Had A Release There. This Time We Decided To Find A Label That Can Get The Record Out In All Of Europe.' Sellingpoints
