In the band’s own words…

“After bringing in a new drummer, we immediately started creating. He wasn’t into this style of music before, but it’s precisely this difference that brought some great ideas and a unique blend. The style of this album is different from the last one, with more short and powerful songs. The lyrics also cover different themes, focusing more on small moments in life. There’s less over-polishing in the arrangements, and we’ve tried to create in a way that’s different from before. This also symbolizes that we’re about to enter a new phase.”

“Because the previous album took 17 years to release, for this practice songs album, I wanted to try creating a song in a very short time. It’s like a homework assignment and practice for myself. I wanted to create something different from the last album, so there are more songs with shouting, I’ve always preferred songs with shouting, almost like transitioning from a young girl to an angry middle-aged woman.”
