It has been difficult to find sources for this album's production outside of reviews and interviews by music publications which, unfortunately, mostly touch on sporadic elements. As a result, this makes it extremely difficult to design a cohesive mold based on facts outside of subjective claims. The most verifiable elements of this page are the statements disclosed by Howden himself on his Facebook page and website, followed by his statements in interviews. However, our group has done the best we can to find a foothold of cohesion, and will continue looking and evaluating. Wraithawit (talk) 21:01, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Lead section edit
Raised By Swans is the solo and collaborative music project and alter ego of singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Eric Howden. His songwriting, arrangement, and musical style have, in Howden’s own words, "drawn many new and admiring fans ", to which Howden greatly enjoys.

"We were young/We didn't heed those things," Eric Howden quietly sings in falsetto on opening track "We Were Never Young." The first moment of No Ghostless Place begins a journey through 13 moments of aural splendor, as themes of fading youth and fleeting love evoke both mournful and triumphant emotions.” The 2010 review from Travis Persaud, editor of Canada publishing web music magazine exclaim.

During the creation of the album at House of Miracles, Howden underwent a unique recording process which included the use of a variety of old and damaged multi-track machines, and the teaching of each part to the chosen session musicians and collaborators who would later record on the album itself. Howden was very particular with his chosen method of recording, arrangement and teaching, to the point where he would, quite literally, shape the instrument until the sound was exactly as he wanted, only to wind up recording the guitar and vocals on his own. Howden stated in his bio that he desired the term "i", as opposed to "we" for his solo artist work.Swilliams115 (talk) 18:02, 8 April 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swilliams115 (talk • contribs) 17:56, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
