Music

Singer Kevin Barnes said the album's sound was influenced by 1980s-style "extended dance mixes" and explained that he "also decided to abandon the 'live band in a room' approach."[11] Barnes listed Angela Davis, Noam Chomsky, Chris Kraus, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Malcolm X, and Mark E. Smith as lyrical influences.[12]
