Reveal

'The album's songs all revolve around a sense of impermanence. The idea that all things are in a constant state of flux, and how vivid and alive everything seems when we embrace this and let go of our need to pin things down. The songs were almost all written during a time of global crisis, but I wanted to push against my own typical response (which in the past has been to retreat, hide under a blanket and indulge in the darkness). The struggles going on all around us are an inevitable presence in the songs, but through that I wanted to try capture a defiant thirst for life in all its twisted beauty. A desire to get outside and dance and be in love and be grateful for the time we've got, even though some days it might look like the world is falling apart around us. <br><br>Recording with the band for one week at a studio in London Fields, we felt this euphoria of all being together making music for the first time after months of isolation. I hope you can hear that on the record, that feeling of gratitude and experimentation and playfulness. We listened to music together every morning and drank pretentious coffee as the morning sun shone in. We laughed and sang and talked openly about how tough this time has been for each of us in different ways. We left politics and The News at the door. We worked on the songs late into the nights and often lost the plot, recording radiators being whacked and cymbals being chucked around the room. I hope when people listen they might sense this music was made by five people lost to the task of trying to capture something positive and celebratory about this time we're living through.'
