===''Juturna'' (2005–2006)=== {{Main article|Juturna (album)}} ''[[Juturna (album)|Juturna]]'', Circa Survive's first album, was released on April 19, 2005, in the United States and on January 31, 2006, in Japan on [[Equal Vision Records]]. It had been initially announced via the band's [[MySpace]] page in November 2004. Details as to its sound remained vague, although the band stated they would keep their fans posted via their website, MySpace page, [[PureVolume]] page, and YouTube page. Shortly before its official release, the album was posted on their MySpace page in its entirety. ''Juturna'' peaked at No. 183 on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]].<ref name=":0">{{cite web|url=http://www.billboard.com/artist/299346/circa+survive/chart|title=Circa Survive - Chart history {{!}} Billboard|website=Billboard.com|access-date=2016-04-25}}</ref> The album was produced by [[Brian McTernan]] at Salad Days Studios in [[Baltimore]]. The band drew inspiration for the album from ''[[House of Leaves]]'' and ''[[Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind]]''. During an online Q&A session on April 20, 2010, Brendan dismissed the claim that ''Juturna'' was a concept album based on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, but did say that there is an underlying concept. That concept is speculated by fans to be vaguely about human memories. "Oh, Hello" exemplifies this with its lyrics. The decision to call the album's bonus track that appears after "Meet Me In Montauk" and the silence that follows it at 8:56, "House of Leaves" was more or less a joint one by the band and their fans. Various members of the band have stated that they have read at least some portion of the book over the years since its 2000 release. The album's sound is characterized by its prominent utilization of effects-laden, dual guitar melodies over polyrhythmic percussion. The guitarists' approach to songwriting takes on characteristics of [[jazz]] and [[shoegaze]] music. The album has since gone on to be considered massively influential to the [[post-hardcore]] community. Members of the band have recently recognized [[King Crimson]], [[Björk]], [[Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra]], and [[Godspeed You! Black Emperor]] as influences on the album's sound.
