About the album artist Jamie Stewart says it is inspired by recent political events, and “it is a rebirth in blanked out renewal but it also drowns and mutilates our attempt to hold on to what is dear.” Full release out on the 24th
In the middle of the song, background singers quote a verse from Bob Marley's first single "Judge Not": "The road of life is rocky; And you may stumble too. So while you point a finger, someone else is judging you".
The new album does not include previous member Amber Coffman, and Up in Hudson seems to be a optimistic commentary

Sampha revealed Kanye co-write "Timmy's Prayer", and said about the inspiration for the song “Sometimes you can be in a sort of loving relationship … that you don’t appreciate when you’re in it … but then when you’re without it you realize it was heaven, because you go out into the wider world and you can meet some real sharks out there, people who are out there for your blood.” Will be playing WaMu with the xx on April 24th

Based on the instrumental first version, called "People Phobia", was composed by guitarist John McKay in 1977. When asked about the lyrics Siouxsie was quoted as explaining the lyrics with reference to the racist activities of skinheads visiting the take-away:
I'll never forget, there was a Chinese restaurant in Chislehurst called the 'Hong Kong Garden'. Me and my friend were really upset that we used to go there and like, occasionally when the skinheads would turn up it would really turn really ugly. These gits would just go in en masse and just terrorise these Chinese people who were working there. We'd try and say 'Leave them alone', you know. It was a kind of tribute.
"Money Never Dreams" came out the day after Molly Nilsson was criticized of allowing her music in a white supremacist Adult Swim show,www.stereogum.com , addressing the issue nicely
Artist Loyle Carner wanted to showcase young fathers for his music video for "The Isle of Arran" , stating“A lot of my boys haven’t had the best relationships with their pops,” Ben says, speaking about the track, “but it’s getting to the point where some of them are becoming fathers themselves. With this video, I just wanted to celebrate the ones who are doing right and sticking around, because slowly they’re shedding the stereotype.”www.youtube.com
