The general mood is that of creating something new, but going back in time to do it. Like attempting to flesh out a song that you woke up humming but can\u0092t find because it doesn&#8217;\u0092t exist yet.<\/p>\n<p>Written, recorded, mixed, and performed entirely by Stewart, the new songs are a unified vision &#8211; one person\u0092s attempt to patchwork together bits of vapor and the\u00a0most subtle\u00a0gleanings of preference to make something wholly new.\u00a0 It&#8217;s an endless drive in the passenger seat of a car while listening to everything you\u0092ve ever loved, but lasting only 40 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>\u0093<em>It&#8217;s a lot of psychic turmoil about time, place, and the dissatisfaction that comes with being young and not having control over place, or being old and not having control over time<\/em>,\u0094 Stewart says about the album. \u0093<em>The record is filled with characters trying to convince themselves, and others, to change or to see things differently or to come along with them somewhere.
