Too scared to love me, trees, or anyone.

Emphasizing mood and expression, Arto combines deeply personal narrative, and passionate performance, concerned with the lives of every day people, personal integrity, and after a recent move to Milwaukee, the stagnant drear of city life, isolation, poverty, and the seeming inviability of love in the modern-industrialized world. The band digresses from their eponymous 2008 release, continuing to play around the state, with an expected sophomore effort release in mid-2010.
