We're so much happier now. We were in a position we didn't want to be in, dealing with labels that didn't know what to do with us. This album is on our own label, and we're responsible for every aspect of the release.
Over the years, 15, 16 years, we've picked up all sorts of bits and pieces, ... And normally when we make an album we load a van up and deliver it all: old Wurlitzers, odd synthesizers and things.

With some of our previous records, we had songs with 14 vocal tracks and three pianos. We just wanted to strip some of that back and make a record we could (easily reproduce) live. And we achieved that. We were just in London and played the album from start to finish.
