"The idea that all we have are positive memories regarding songs exploring seemingly hopeless and regretful, often traumatic situations won’t make sense to a lot of people but maybe that’s the whole point of the record." - Danny Kiranos
The third full length album by Amigo, and the most ambitious to date. The title "Yours Until the War is Over" is a reference to the vibrant yet fragile connection between Hemingway and Nurse Agnes, and the relationship and correspondence between them. We wanted this to feel like you were the receiver of all these little pieces of mail, thoughts, and messages being sent by a person that is coming to grips with their reality, while slowly slipping into madness. Scribbles on napkins and placemats. Old butcher paper and receipts. Postcards and letters. All of these elements were printed on these various things and come in a sealed manila envelope in the record. There was also a standard version of the record where all this was included within a booklet.
As each song became its own entity in the physical release, I chose to design logos for the songs to go along with the companies and people that would have been writing them. This idea paned out into the merchandise as well creating pieces that were specific to the songs and people within them.
