The album is titled ‘Lush Life’ – these phrases are referenced just a few instances all through the album. Themes or motifs explored within the album typically contain a eager for one thing that isn’t there, however perhaps not fairly realizing precisely what that one thing is. The time period ‘Lush Life’ kind of describes an image good world the place every part is straightforward (however doesn’t really exist).
I needed it to be good, and we tried a whole lot of various things within the studio, when it comes to melodies and harmonies. It was a whole lot of enjoyable. I used to be enjoying in one other band on the time and consistently on tour which made it exhausting to complete the album in a linear means. However I’m glad we took our time with it, as a result of it’s turned out precisely how we needed it.
