“If you look at the cover of the album, it’s a picture of two older guys. Those guys are actually our grandfathers – the guy on the left is my grandfather and the guy on the right is Tyler’s grandfather. We look at those guys, they’re a lot older and we respect them. Actually, my grandfather just passed away….

…It’s kind of a reminder that our bodies grow old and go away. We sort of look at our own bodies as a sort of vessel – in my mind, something that transports something important. We look at our own bodies as a vessel of a message or an idea to transport as we live life. Hopefully, the message or what is inside can actually outlive the vessel itself.”  ~Josh Dun
