Sam Murphy (Vocalist/guitarist): “This song was written about a relationship that I ended, and reminiscing about the feelings months after the fact. Lyrically, it’s a very bittersweet song.
It looks back positively on the time that was spent but there’s also a layer of regret about the things that never quite came to fruition.
It’s strange to sing live now because the relationship that it’s referencing has
since been rekindled but I can still connect to those feelings from back then.”
TUTV: Think Interpol going slo-mo on a sort of psychedelic lament, which cycles
around sinister guitar riffs, a persistent drum beat and yearning vocals, while the
song’s sonic capriciousness is swelling along its gloomy path and heads towards
a pulse-pounding finale. Lots of traumatic tension with a nerve-racking impact.
Stupefying stroke.
