People don't often highlight Lightning Bolt at that pivot point, but I do love that record. I think Backspacer is a less labored record. I do think it's creative, but it feels a little light and perhaps 'drafty'
"Lightning Bolt is a record about legacy, the relationship between past, present, and future, the challenge of renewal, and the fragility, insecurity, and drive that comes from having something, finally, to lose."
