Guitarist Quinn Allman explained the same, but said "it's sort of a party album". The first single from the album will be "Handsome Awkward". On the Berth dvd a short clip of Bert screaming some kind of chorus to "My Pesticide" can be heard, and also, you can see Bert singing some of "Light In A Tunnel".
