Let's rewind ourselves back to last year when this new era of The Maine was first taking shape. What was the mood within the band coming out of You Are OK' as album eight began to peer over the horizon?
Pat: Well, the different thing about this time is that we had 'Sticky recorded, mixed and done while we were still touring 'You Are OK'. I actually think we got the first mix back on the UK tour, so there wasn't really much of a break between the two cycles.
Garrett: That gave us confidence because we were already really excited about that song. It was like, 'Okay, we've got a good one ready to go', so that mood was already there when we went into it. I can't remember a time where that's been the case before, where we've had a song that we were all like, 'That's the one', before we even started making a record. That freed us up to do some different stuff sonically that we maybe wouldn't have done if we didn't have that song ready to go.
Did 'Sticky' lead the vision going into XOXO: From Love And Anxiety In Real Time' as you began mapping things out, then?
