Along with celebrating historic milestones on tour for their albums Transatlanticism and Plans, frontman Ben Gibbard also struggled with the collapse of his personal life in the background, creating the concept of a “tower” that stands at the center of this new project, to protect himself.
“There’s this need to find a place in ourselves to put loss and grief,” he explains. “A place that can hold it so we can move on with our lives. But there are these moments where the trauma breaks out of that shell we created for it.”
“The whole experience of this record got us back to the earliest versions of this band: If the musicians in the room like what we’re working on, that’s enough,” bassist Nick Harmer shares. “We reconnected with the confidence that comes with that.”
