“‘Exits’ is basically about trying to paint a visual picture with words about the state of where we’re at, and all the preoccupations that we have,” frontman Yannis Philippakis told NME. “The environment being one, also the state of surveillance and all of the ways that we attached to the outside world. There isn’t any privacy.
“Essentially I started fantasising about a way of living underground. It’s set in this warped and surreal landscape. It’s not necessarily a dark place, but you can take refuge from the outside world with the hope that you could come above ground at some point.”
