Comments by Rick on a few of the albums (from eye, 8/23/01 issue) :
"We always wrote naively from what we were living emotionally," says Eric's Trip singer/guitarist Rick White, "so the records are all kind of like photo albums to me and I remember the times that surround them." Here's what he remembers.
* Peter (1993, Murderecords): "This reminds me of our demos that we used to sell on cassette in Moncton when all of a sudden the guys from Sloan helped us put it out on CD. It's named after our friend Peter Holt and that's him on the cover."
* Love Tara (1993, Sub Pop): "This was our 'naive, pumped-up and surprised about what's going on' record. By the time we got this out, the relationship between Julie and I was beginning to deteriorate, so pretty much all our records dealt with that."
* The Gordon Street Haunting (1994, Sub Pop): "This was the breakup. Whenever I hear it, I hear the finality of our relationship and having to get over it and move on."
* Forever Again (1994, Sub Pop): "This deals with the immediate aftermath."
* Purple Blue (1996, Sub Pop): "It's the first record we made when we were all pretty separate -- we recorded it live in a studio as opposed to making it a little creation like we did with our other records. We weren't living communally like we used to."
* The Eric's Trip Show (2000, teenage USA): "I always wanted to put out a realistic document of what we were like live onstage for people who hadn't seen us. We didn't sound like our albums -- it was more of a chaotic adventure. I tried to show that the same set could be perfect and energetic and still fall apart at the same time."
