This is the first album we wrote entirely collaboratively and recorded live. We had spent the past few years playing shows and improvising on stage so it felt right to try to use that energy in the studio. We kept a really limited palette on this record, restricting the amount of people and the instruments used to keep things focused. Loosely written as snapshots of a character negotiating modern life, all of the vocals were recorded in one sitting to let the narration get exhausted and more worn out over time.
