This 2004 album is a pivot from the more produced sound of previous albums, with Bazan opting for a sparser, more intimate recording approach.
- "Achilles Heel" was recorded by Bazan himself in his home studio, a departure from the work of previous albums.
- The album was released on Jade Tree Records, a label known for its roster of influential indie rock bands.
- The release saw Pedro the Lion shifting towards a more subdued, minimalist sound, which would continue to evolve in Bazan's subsequent work.
Pedro the Lion is the indie rock project of Seattle-based singer-songwriter David Bazan. At the time of "Achilles Heel," Bazan was shifting away from the band format to focus on solo work.
