In October, he said that his new LP would be “more guitar-heavy” while being “deeper” lyrically. Speaking of the project last year, he explained: “Every album is a juxtaposition of the last album.

So I went and studied ‘Tickets’, and I heard the bright sound that I had, and for this [new] album I just turned the lights off.“I’m not scared anymore, there’s nothing holding me back from being my true self – and my true self can’t be silenced, can’t be restrained.

It’s a force, it’s like a hurricane. Can’t stop that, it just goes until it feels like stopping, and I don’t feel like stopping anytime soon.”.
