Preoccupations was written at a breaking point, when stability disappeared and the band chose to move forward anyway.
Recorded during a period of personal upheaval and transition, the album captures Preoccupations stripping their process down to instinct. Relationships ended, cities changed, even the band’s identity was in flux. Rather than working from a concept, the songs emerged from lived experience, focusing on anxiety, monotony, memory, and the quiet pressure of everyday collapse. The titles say exactly what they mean, and the music does the rest.
Sonically, the record is tense and physical, built from sharp post-punk rhythms, fractured guitar lines, and a constant sense of motion. It is still abrasive, but more intimate than their previous work, less scorched earth and more exposed nerve. Songs stretch, repeat, and rebuild themselves, especially on the sprawling “Memory,” where restraint and emotional weight slowly overtake force.
Preoccupations feels honest because it does not try to resolve anything. It documents the act of holding on while everything changes, proving that discomfort can be grounding and that instability can still point you forward.
