about

Mixed by Joe Sage @ Nevis Audio
Recorded by Shuta Shinoda at Hackney Road Studios
Mastered by Chris Graham
Artwork by Surma Creative

The track explores a new experimental realm for the band, whilst sitting very comfortably in line with its predecessors. ‘Innovative Thinking’ has a mixture of expressive layered vocal harmonies, resonating and relatable lyrics, an ocean of dynamic guitar tones and of course… Naughty. Slick. Beats.

Lyrically, the track delves into the challenges of modern technologies and how humanity’s reliance on it allows it control our existence. It demonstrates the idea that human emotion is decreasing, turning our individual life experiences somewhat robotic, alluding to the idea of a transformation into being a mere source of information, as opposed to an emotive being.

lyrics

Why don’t you cut off my tongue?
And replace it with an automated tone
Video graphic information in my head
And the small print plastered on my chest
Please look for the flashing lights
Cause I’m signalling that I don’t wanna be alone tonight
I think my circuit board has fused, alright

Oh darling, I can’t think straight
I just think in too many ways
And I can’t feel you the same

My hair won’t go curly from the crust
I won’t go grey, but I will rust
Will I ever learn to love?
Or just spout information
I’m shutting down, shutting down

It’s this kind of innovative thinking

I represent the fact that curiosity turned me into a machine
And I resent the fact that it’s what got me into this scene

It this kind of innovative thinking

It’s always been hard telling you how I feel
But it’s even harder now my smiles made of steel
I can tell you the volume of water in the sea
But I can’t breathe

It’s this kind of innovative thinking
