In an exclusive interview with The Guardian, the singer elaborated on the themes behind the album, stating:
"It’s a place that still has a little bit of hope, of the future, of some sort of utopia,I like optimism. I’m barely holding on to it; I don’t know what it’s coming out of and if I believe it any more. But I have to have that hope when I’m making music. It’s like betting on a horse that might take you closer to the sublime."
