In his recent cover story for The FADER's Sex issue, Perfume Genius discussed how he pushed himself in the making of his new record. "I didn’t want everything to be based just around the piano,” he said. “When it was just me and a few elements, I knew I was in full control. I could wing it. This time I tried to push myself to not go to the chord I naturally would have. I wanted to be like, ‘I’m a musician!’ To go for it.”
