On the album, Far Caspian's Joel Johnston is learning to make peace with the cards he's been dealt. Following his Crohn's disease diagnosis in 2021, Johnston felt stuck mourning the loss of his life before, and struggling to cope with not only his new reality, but also an ongoing battle with OCD and anxiety. 'Autofiction' finds the Irish musician discovering the tools he needs to keep moving forward. 'I'm now at the point where I don't really let it define me', he says. 'The lyric 'your mind changed from a fear to a song' [on 'Lough'] is my expression of freedom: to no longer be held down by something you've got used to. I'm trying to not even make sense of it all, but just live in it, and be grateful for the things I do have'.
