Revisiting Teens in the run-up to its 10th year, he felt compelled to give \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ogsb=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogac=\"\" class=\"markm0zgii9yl\" data-markjs=\"true\"\u003eJoe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e a backstory and began tweaking the album to tell that tale. “The resulting work feels more like the album Teens of Denial was meant to be,” Will Toledo writes in a new message to fans. “When you’re writing from a dark space, it’s hard to have perspective on where you’re at. This time, I could pull from memories of that darkness, and use the distance and additional perspective of ten years of life to shed a fuller light on the experience. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ogsb=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogac=\"\" class=\"markm0zgii9yl\" data-markjs=\"true\"\u003eJoe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a character going through some of what I experienced, and some of his own problems.” Early this year, the group returned to the studio with producer Steve Fisk to update accordingly –tweaking lyrics and recording new tunes in the “Denial-style,” including the optimistic and anthemic “\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ogsb=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogac=\"\" class=\"markm0zgii9yl\" data-markjs=\"true\"\u003eJoe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Drives Again.” The result retains Teens’s dark edge and youthful cynicism, but promises a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Toledo writes, “I’m so grateful that this is a work that people have kept coming to, and I hope that this presentation does them honor with a fresh offering to the conversation. We’ve known that “it doesn’t have to be like this”; now we can wonder – “‘what it if were like this?’”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Car Seat Headrest","offers":[{"title":"Teen of Denial: Joe’s Story - 2X LP","offer_id":45792506118213,"sku":"cfr1789782946453","price":20.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Teen of Denial: Joe’s Story - CD","offer_id":45792506150981,"sku":"bbk1789782946454","price":10.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/7440\/7493\/files\/teen-of-denial-joes-story_1.jpg?v=1789782950","url":"https:\/\/dawnstrollclad.shop\/products\/teen-of-denial-joes-story","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
