Chris DeMakes of Less Than Jake talks about Borders and Boundaries:

“I’m impressed with how well [‘Borders and Boundaries’] has held up. We recorded that record with a guy named Steve Kravac, and Steve had done some mixes right when we got done with the record. And we, weren’t happy with all of them. We had asked Bill… that was the first time we ever worked with Bill from Blasting Room. We asked Bill Stevenson to mix it. Him and Steph the guitar player from Descendants, they mixed the album. Our horn section, they were taking lessons from this well-renowned horn player. I think if they had to drive to a college at a university and they would go sit with him for like an hour a week, an hour or two, and they would learn. Their chops were just really up, the horn sounded good. Rog and I were singing really well at this point. It holds up. I’m proud of it. There’s other records at our catalogue that I don’t feel that way about. So I’m proud for that reason.”
