I Just Wasn’t Made For This Sacrifice

God Only Knows (How Much He Hates Us All)

this is only thread adjacent but all the same, Shabaka Hutchings joins the recording without headphones cadre:

So for instance, one of the things that I did was have everyone not use any headphones or separation, and tell everyone that we want to be playing as if it’s the introduction or the outro of any particular song. We want to hold that space. Just to get them into a mold of how they engage together.

The album’s recording process was fully analogue: recorded on tape, mixed on an analogue console and cut directly on to the acetate used to make records.
