“Higher” is described by vocalist Victor Kaas as a declaration of development and resilience: “‘Higher’ is in some ways an announcement of intention for the album. It’s brief and intense. The music is about wanting to enhance as a musician, as a band, as an individual. However it doesn’t matter what your intentions are, there’ll at all times be somebody who will put you down. Typically that particular person is your self.”
Spinner finds Eyes transferring away from the noisy edges of their earlier work, they aimed to embrace a extra structured and dynamic strategy within the studio and seize a punchier and groovier sound.

In his personal phrases: “Spinner tells a free story by way of the lens of a fictional early 80’s anime episode and introduces a forged of assorted characters all through the ten songs, all based mostly on conditions, states of thoughts, and persona traits of myself.””
“The album is closely impressed by manga writer Asano Inio and his works Goodnight Punpun and Lifeless Lifeless Demon’s De De De Destruction. Spinner was written as a option to course of traumas all through youth and early maturity and depart them behind in a world just like what I used to flee to,” he added.
