Vocalist/Guitarist Tim Kasher shared the following about the new album:
I am obsessive about consuming the arts. Music, film, literature. I've come to recognize that I devour all of these art forms then, in turn, create my own versions of these things and spew them out onto the world. It's positive; you're part of an ecosystem. But I quickly recognized that the term, 'Devourer,' may also embody something gnarly, sinister." Devourer delves into that darker space. The characters populating the album have bottomless capacities for consumption, whether it's resources, material goods, art, or even each other. Then they are consumed by larger forces, whether it's humanity, Earth, dreams, time, or life itself. "Maybe a better word for it is imperialism. But it's in many different forms. It's not just the political. It's personal imperialism and the imperialism of relationships, the way we imperialize one another, even ourselves."
