My musical output is, for better or worse, a representation of my personality, Neil admits. A good chunk of that personality revels in the rumbumptious celebrates the silly. And I made ample use of that for the Wonka songs.I have, though, like everyone, a darker, more melancholy side. And for one reason or another it has been much in evidence of late. I needed to use this album as an outlet for those feelings. To work through some stuff. Mortality memories relationships political and social upheaval.
