About “Erotic Reruns”

AW: Oh you have to dig into it. I’m not gonna say, I mean I could say…how I came up with it. [laughs] But the clue is that it is linked to the title of the last one.

Chris Keating [on being told their answer]: [laughs] I like that answer a lot! But I think it’s just some weird phrase that Anand kept saying, and he has these phrases that I think you can interpret in a few different ways. I think just the very nature of being a band in this climate, you’re kind of antiquated and old-fashioned – kind of like a rerun? And the idea of erotic it’s not – by nature, reruns are not erotic. And then also to me, it has this type of odd relevance to our current climate with like Trump being this rehash of like – you’ve seen the same old figures again, like old John Bolton, oh he’s back! But for some reason this is our porn star president. This is the eroticization, the vulgar – not that erotic necessarily means vulgar. So I was kind of looking at it like that too. Like, “Here we are again – but just a little more sexed up!”
