“I realize that there is such an opportunity inside of the music to provide that storytelling … Not so much a concept album or concept song that you can’t extract your own experience from it,” Joseph instructed us in 2021 when discussing Scaled and Icy. “But for it to be grounded in some bigger story always felt more impactful. When you’re creating something, you want to make sure that you’re tethered to reality still. Even if you’re venturing deep into this abyss, tie rope around your waist. [You] keep it tied back to where you came from.”
