Joshua Tillman, also known as Father John Misty, has revealed song titles for the upcoming album. This follows the artist giving “Pure Comedy” makeover on “Pure Country”.
According to Pitchfork, the artist says in an interview “Most of this next album was written in a six-week period where I was kind of on the straits.” He also said it’s “the real I Love You, Honeybear but without the cynicism,” and called it “a heartache album.” In an interview with Uncut, Tillman gave further detail about the album. saying “I think I instinctually understood that if I blew everything up, I could put it back together better than it was. But look, I don’t want to talk about what happened. Maybe in 30 years from now I will. I know that sounds dramatic. But to talk to me about what this album’s about, I’d have to bring other people into the picture who don’t want to be.”
The session began with Foxygen’s Jonathan Rado and Tillerman having some free time the day after helping out with Adam Green’s new album and deciding to record some songs. The songs mentioned were “Ouch, I’m Drowning,” “Dum Dum Blues,” “Mr Tillman, Please Exit The Lobby”, and “Well, We’re Only People And There’s Nothing Much We Can Do About It.”
