A Thousand Words is the sixth album for artist Styrofoam aka Arne Van Petegem.[1] [2] It is also the first for label Nettwerk.
A Thousand Words eschews previous methods of what Styrofoam calls “bedroom producing” in favor of a fresh approach. Breaking the mold from previous Styrofoam albums, which were self-produced, A Thousand Words enlisted the guidance of Wax Ltd (Wally Gagel and Xandy Barry), a Los Angeles production team.
The album features a diverse yet cohesive array of guest vocalists, like Jim Adkins from Jimmy Eat World, Blake Hazard and Josh Rouse. Van Petegem has grown out of the, as he puts it, “shy electronic guy afraid of singing” to return to his roots singing in indie rock bands.
