This is the most simple and personal album I have ever listened to. A lot of artists write songs based on events that have happened in their life, and obviously based on the title that is exactly what this was. These three songs told a lot about places lead singer, Dan Lambton, has been, people he's met, and people who've left. It was as if he was personally telling me stories of what's happened these past three years, I loved it.
Dirty Water: The way I would translate this song is he met someone who was, in his words, shallow, and he wasn't too fond of them, and didn't really mind if they left. Although this person didn't have as much hard times as Dan did, they still had hard times but always kept to themselves, and in the end he realized this person was just like him but more secluded.
Hebron: I love this song so much. It was all about someone who left Dan, and all the memories they had together. He was obviously hurt when this person left, and was reminded of all the good times they had together and having them leave really effected him. There was so much hurt in his voice talking about how he's all alone now.
Alexander Supertramp: This was a very nostalgic song, all about his old memories and how he never wanted to grow up, and how hard it's been. I think everyone can relate to how stressful trying to grow up is, and just wanting to go back to when we were little kids.
