Coming from the Kip Berman-fronted group’s own Painbow label, the nine-track effort is the band’s fourth full-length overall. According to a statement Berman made in a press release, it might also be their last.He explained,Tracklist:
“When I recorded the record, my wife was six months pregnant. We only had a limited amount of time. There was an absolute uncertainty hanging over our heads, but it was also a kind of escape from worry for that time. What’s going to happen when I have a kid? Am I going to be able to go on tour? Is this the last record I’m going to get to make? It’s not a bad thing to be worried when you’re expecting this huge transition of life. If you didn’t feel scared, you’re probably not feeling the right emotion. I tried to make the best record I could, knowing it might be the last time.”
Helping him through the fear was producer Andy Savours (My Blood Valentine, The Killers), who previously worked on Days of Abandon. Berman was also joined by guests Jen Goma of A Sunny Day in Glasgow, Dream Diary bassist Jacob Danish Sloan, and Kelly Pratt (Beirut, David Byrne) on horns.
