In a recent interview with Zane Lowe, Machine Gun Kelly revealed that Tickets To My Downfall as a whole was pretty much spawned from just this session, such was the vibe and enthusiasm for the material that was being worked on.
“This whole thing started out with one studio session,” he said. “We’ve been great friends for a decade. So this was just like, ‘Hey, let’s just do a random day of work.’ The energy was so immense that came from it…
“And it was so powerful that Travis was like, ‘Fuck it, I’m blocking off two months of my life and we’re doing this album.’ So I know it has some of that feel and some of that album’s classic nostalgia in this because otherwise we wouldn’t have just stopped everything we were doing to do this.”
