+    Hey there, you! Yes you!
+    Welcome to this wonderful new album made by the coolest folk around B) You've all hear of [[album:alterniabound]], an album made for a game about a bunch of wacky gray skinned aliens.
+    BUT... those were only 12 of those candy corn horned creatures, and you guessed it, there are more! So we decided to make a different album to cover another 12 ashen colored individuals you might've heard of.
+    Introducing: BeforusBound! the coolest and most epic album out there as proclaimed by the est proclaimer of things ever, Morgan Freeman! (not really). For those people who hate animal sound in music, there are none here! And for those people who thought [[Rex Duodecim Angelus]] was just an overrated piece of nofin. It's not in this album!
+    For all you people who do actually like the dancestors, this album will heat up your headphones like popcorn in a pan cause it's the real epic fyre, yo!
+    The games have never stopped byt the Homestuck music sure has, so we, The self-proclaimed Paradox clones of the Homestuck music team, decided to try and give the fans another great album full of Homestuck inspired music based on no ones favorite characters! Now go listen to the awesome tunes from the depths of the internet and tell all your friends, grandmas and next door (neigh)bours to do the same, because they should!
+    I wish you a great amount of listening fun tiems, i'm out :D

+    In it's initial stages, All Alone was going to be a song about Damara's generally creepy and unsettling personality and demeanor.
+    As I worked on the song however, I decided to change the topic of my song. Rather than be about Damara's behavior during the Openbound, I wanted the song to act as theme for her downfall.
+    It's implied in the openbound that Damara was a fairly nice but demure person prior to her fight with Meenah. Her confrontation with Meenah marks Damara's transformation into the person we see in the Openbound.
+    All Alone is about Damara's sadness and grief at her situation becoming bitterness and anger towards the world and her former friends.
+    It's also worth noting that This is my first fully original song I've done for a team album. I hope you like it.
