THE STICKS starts off with opening track "Omen", that begins with a sweet and haunting piano motif followed by the innocent timbre of a five-year-old lad singing alongside Ryan, "something about the world today makes a boy feel a bit insane”. The outcome, I believe, is the most pure and unadorned music the band has made".
This was a healthy concept to be channeling when both writing and producing THE STICKS. "Despite my upbringing", continues the Quadra Island-raised, "I'm not your quintessential woodsman, but I do admire the simple and self-reliant approach to life, believing it to broaden the mind and soul. "It seems the more complex and voluminous our gadgetry becomes, the less equipped we become as people, both in original thought and survival skills," says Ryan on the subject. This became a catalyst for a myriad of new songs encompassing a similar theme: a call to arms against the modern, man-made world and a campaign for simplicity and self-contained lifestyles. When Ryan began writing for THE STICKS, one of the first songs to surface was "Bit By Bit", an explosive track with the opening words "Bit by bit, I'm going to get my bricks out in the sticks”. Lyrically, THE STICKS is also the group’s most cohesive and conceptual album thus far.
Recorded during the winter of 2012 in Mother Mother’s hometown of Vancouver and co-produced by the group’s own frontman/principle songwriter Ryan Guldemond and producer/engineer Ben Kaplan (Shakira, Mudvayne, Gallows), THE STICKS upholds Mother Mother’s tradition of tri-harmony vocal arrangements and dynamic instrumentation, while making for the group’s most eclectic and rich album to date. No further edits should be made to this section.After an exciting year of virtually non-stop globetrotting, Canadian art-pop quintet MOTHER MOTHER wasted no time getting back into recording mode to create what they are pleased to present to the world as their fourth studio effort: THE STICKS, due on Septemvia Last Gang Records.

MOTHER MOTHER THE STICKS ALBUM COVER ARCHIVE
The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. In ictu oculi ( talk) 06:05, 27 September 2015 (UTC) You should have made a redirect to dab yourself before requesting this move. Nick Number ( talk) 19:56, 26 September 2015 (UTC) Yes it is. Also, your unilateral creation of a redirect at The Sticks while this discussion was still going on is not constructive. The entry you added to the dab for it says Sticks without the The. The Led Zeppelin IV article doesn't contain any mention that it is referred to as The Sticks. Specifically which other meanings from the dab would be referred to as "The Sticks" with a capital S? The Cannonball in Japan track you just added doesn't seem very notable on its own, and could be covered by a hatnote. Absurd moved page The Sticks (Mother Mother album) to The Sticks (album): unnecessary disambiguation) In ictu oculi ( talk) 01:55, 26 September 2015 (UTC) Oppose numerous other meanings at Stick, in fact given the Led Zeppelin album this should be back at The Sticks (Mother Mother album) (Mr.Nick Number ( talk) 14:17, 24 September 2015 (UTC) The Sticks (album) → The Sticks – The previous article at The Sticks was deleted, and looking at Stick, the album is the only remaining meaning for "The Sticks" with a capital S. No consensus that this album is the primary topic. The result of the move request was: not moved. No further edits should be made to this section.
