Delving into the depths of altered perceptions and escapism, Slowdough explores the juxtaposition of creativity and dependency. The lyrics present a tale of four free-spirited individuals—a metaphor for the band's members—embracing a life unbound by societal norms. Their indulgence in substances like amanita mushrooms, marijuana, and alcohol fuels not only their artistic expression but also their yearning to transcend ordinary reality. Terms like "junkie love" and references to Heisenberg (a nod to "Breaking Bad") evoke a gritty, rebellious lifestyle that rejects conventional boundaries. The repeated longing to "see the galaxy" symbolizes a quest for higher consciousness and a break from mundane existence. Ultimately, the song captures the conflicted beauty of a world where vices both liberate and entrap, painting a vivid picture of the band's unity and creative pursuit. #Escapism #AlteredStates #CreativeExpression
