The vocals from Kelly Jones explore the nuances of relationships and the questions that arise about how well we really know one another.“It always had a great melody, but in the studio I took it through three or four different versions, from very complex busy drumming refs to the finished, very sparse drum machine and juno synth version on the album, which I love,” he explained.“That atmosphere and the lyrics match so well together.

Relationships are complex. Communication is so often broken.”As for the album, the LP marks their 13th studio record and is the follow-up to 2022’s ‘Oochya!’.
