Throwback Thursday: Ace Enders discusses The Early November’s “Decoration”
from Chris DeMakes A Podcast · host Chris DeMakes
This week’s Throwback Thursday episode was originally released on July 15th, 2024, and features Ace Enders of The Early November discussing the writing and recording of the fan-favorite single “Decoration,” from the band’s ambitious 2006 triple album The Mother, The Mechanic, And The Path, which is an album the band will be touring in celebration of this February and March 2026 alongside Hellogoodbye and Punchline. Hailing from that sprawling concept record, “Decoration” captures a raw, vintage essence that continues to resonate deeply with listeners, and Ace dives into how the song came together both lyrically and sonically. It’s a thoughtful, behind-the-scenes look at one of The Early November’s most beloved songs and a Throwback Thursday episode you won’t want to miss.
