Writing and Recording
Harry and the Potters actively promote literacy, and as the band began writing more music, their lyrics slowly begain turning more political. For instance, the album's title song references Tipper Gore and the Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC)'s attempts in the 1980s to censor music. The song contains the verse, "And we won't let the Dark Lord ruin our party/ Just like Tipper Gore tried with the PMRC."
Voldemort Can't Stop the Rock! was recorded in May and June 2004 in the DeGeorge family shed. The bands friend and fellow musician Ernie Kim played drums again.

Famous quotes containing the words writing and/or recording:
“The naive notion that a mother naturally acquires the complex skills of childrearing simply because she has given birth now seems as absurd to me as enrolling in a nine-month class in composition and imagining that at the end of the course you are now prepared to begin writing War and Peace.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
“Write while the heat is in you.... The writer who postpones the recording of his thoughts uses an iron which has cooled to burn a hole with. He cannot inflame the minds of his audience.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
