Throughout the album, songwriter Stephen Agustin circles a fire that feels so bright and yet so unknowable; there are not many answers to be found, only a disruption, the emergence of a world seen with new eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Return Forever\u2019 was first inspired by a moment in Agustin\u2019s family history in which he learned that a close relative had left behind a young daughter when she moved to the United States, turning away from her past life and creating one anew. Shocked though he was, Agustin soon became fascinated with the idea of the \u201c<em>poetry of forgetfulness.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Fourth Wall has opened for acts such as\u00a0The Shins, Andrew Bird, Menomena, Band of Horses, and\u00a0Typhoon. They self-recorded\u00a0\u2018Return Forever,\u2019 beginning with recordings Agustin made in isolation during the pandemic.
