Parents. The Cure. The mating patterns of bees. Even without being fans of the Airborne Toxic Event, one could surmise the two topics that made way into the band’s sophomore release All At Once. The album was produced by Dave Sardy under more conventional circumstances, considering the previous album had been recorded during the drummer’s lunch breaks at his day job. All At Once also marked a much-anticipated follow-up to the band’s enormous 2008 debut. The band had returned from extensive touring, accolades from mega-stars like U2 and a performance at Walt Disney Concert Hall in its hometown Los Angeles.
