In a press release, Yates, who co-produced the record, said capturing the emotion of the album was difficult. “Working to figure out what you want from a song and how to capture it is always a huge learning experience,” Yates says. “A live show environment shared with others, I think, is the true essence of the band and music; but when recording an album, you’re given a lot of opportunity. You want to breathe as much imagination into it as possible.” While Blood Orange’s feature adds depth to “ALIEN LOVE CALL,” fans can also expect to hear the songwriter’s melodic vocals featured on “LONELY DEZIRES.” Additionally, the singer contributes vocals on “ENDLESS.”
