Hunger and Thirst is the second studio album by American indie rock band Typhoon. It was released in May 2010.
This was their only studio album released under Tender Loving Empire.[1]
Background[edit]
Morton has said the album was influenced by the structure of David Lynch's films by having nice surface music but being much darker under the surface with his lyrics.[2]
It took Morton about two years to write the album and it was recorded in three to four months.[2]
