"It's different from anything we've done before. It's kind of influenced by Silver Apples, with the oscillators and stuff, with that mad buh–duh–buh–duh beat. Definitely rough, but with the 4/4 bass drum, and that bass line, we had to be careful. The slightest movement of the filter and it ends up sounding like terrible house! It's a departure for us, it's fast, a very different beat, but it's something we had to do. We couldn't be going back to our old world. Beth's way of singing is incredibly different on it.
"We're all of us trying to change, really. Still in our world but further down the road we've been travelling. And people say the guitar is Joy Division–y. Just rough — by choice. Detuned Harmony kid's guitar through a shitty little amp. We're always looking for limited frequency in instruments, something with a fog around it that glues it into a track so it doesn't stand out. Limited playing, too. I pursued virtuosity for many years, learning scales and harmony, and being able to improvise through scales and chords, but technique isn't important for me any more." -Adrian Utley
