About

Like their 4AD debut, Livonia, His Name Is Alive's Home Is in Your Head comprises tracks that originated in Warren Defever's basement on a 4-track recorder, later remixed by Ivo Watts-Russell and John Fryer into something suitable for release. "Sitting Still Moving Still Staring Outlooking" was later used in the 1996 film Jerry Maguire in a key scene when Tom Cruise is having a nervous breakdown. Tracks four, five and six are a suite of songs collectively known as The Song of Schizophrenia. All tracks are written by Warren Defever, credited as His Name Is Alive; except for "The Well," which was written by Karin Oliver; "Tempe," written by Jymn Auge; and "There's Something Between Us and He's Changing My Word," which is a cover of a song by Bone Machine. Defever and Auge actually co-wrote this song, as Bone Machine was an early band of their. Guitarist Auge had guested on Livonia, and by this album was a full-time member of HNIA. A hidden song is included on the last track. After a brief moment of silence following the conclusion of "Dreams Are of the Body," a song called "The Other Body" begin. This is a demo track that ends abruptly, as the tape ran out during recording. .
