Speaking to Lowe after the first play of the song, Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke said: "This song was one of the last songs that we wrote [for the new album]... We knew we had something so we kept beavering away and before we knew it, we had it."NME

He added that he was looking forward to touring the record with the band, but acknowledged the fact that a hectic schedule had caused problems in the past. He said: "I'm looking forward to performing this record because I’m very proud of it" but added that there was "some trepidation when I look at my schedule and it's already booked up until summer next year!"

Kele also explained that the band are currently filming a documentary. Though skimpy on the details he said to "watch this space".
