Background
[edit]The band previewed the album at their first concerts in Estonia in October 2007. The material was then recorded in Seattle during 2008.[1] The band returned to Estonia to perform the album in May 2009, joined on stage by Willcox's husband Robert Fripp. In February 2010, The Humans further promoted the album with a short UK tour.[2]
Three music videos have been released from the album: "We Are the Humans" (2007), "Quicksilver" (2009) and "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" (2009). The latter was also released as a single.[3]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
