Dan Smith said, “[This album will be a] very slightly nineties looking euphoric party album but in a sort of scuzzy British way that kind of acknowledges that we still live in the same world as we made our last record, if not a slightly more bizarre one. But, how it’s not necessarily healthy for the mind to engage with it too much. […] It’s a record about escapism. It’s definitely more personal and inward-looking forward.”- source : NME
