MUNA talked with Rolling Stone about their latest album:
McPherson: You can’t help but react against what you’ve previously worked on, whether you’ve had success or not. With “Silk,” there of course is fear. This has been happening to us since the beginning of our career. We’re always like, “What if this is the best moment of our lives and then everything else after this sucks?” Since we toured with Harry Styles, we were like, “What if this is the peak?” You never know. We have to accept that, but what we are in control of is making music that we think is good. It would have been a very fear-based scarcity mentality thing to do to try to recreate “Silk Chiffon” another 11 times and see which one sticks.
