Adults using this type of language, from my perspective, does hint at immaturity and questionable judgment due to lack of formal...

It's also more meaningful and emotional. Interviewer: Where did your inspiration for this record come from? When you say it's different, do you mean you experimented with your sound more? Rian: We definitely did experiment a lot, yeah. We spent roughly two years in the studio, you know, writing, recording, producing, collaborating, making sure we get the right message across in all our lyrics. I think that since we've worked with so many different people on this al...
