IN RETROSPECT THE ALBUM OUT JULY 10TH - SIMPLE THING OUT NOW - i wrote this album during one of the hardest years of my life. during that i reflected on what brought me there, just trying to figure out how to get out where i was mentally and physically. everything on this album is intentional. the weird lyrics on some songs might not mean much to you but they mean everything to me. so ready for you to hear it. this means a lot to me and hopefully it’ll mean something to you too. 🩵🩵

“I Am the Best Artist I’ve Ever Been”: 44phantom Breaks Through on ‘IN RETROSPECT,’ a Raw, Bruising Reckoning With Himself (@44phantom)
—
44phantom barrels through the wreckage of early fame and his own past mistakes on his sonically explosive, emotionally charged third record ‘IN RETROSPECT,’ an unflinchingly candid album where blown-out guitars and massive hooks carry the sharpest, most human writing of his career. The Oklahoma alternative artist opens up about escaping someone else’s rock-and-roll dream and trusting the instincts that helped him create his most personal and complete record yet.
.
“I feel like I’m finally making art for the first time in my life. It’s a lot more of finding why that song should exist, and what I want to say.”
.
“I am the best artist I’ve ever been. My songs are the best they’ve ever been. My writing is the best it’s ever been.”
.
“I think I’ve been trying to write the song that makes me feel whole my entire life. Since I was a kid, I’ve just felt like there’s something missing in me that isn’t missing in everyone else, and when I write a song that feels honest and truthful, I feel better for a while.”
.
“I made a point in this album to really start putting myself in my music, rather than trying to just write a great song, I wanted to write a song in a way only I could.”
.
“There’s almost nothing worse than being right when you want to be proven wrong.”
.
“I needed to throw a blanket over myself to figure out who I am. The good parts and the bad parts.”
.
“Music is like a color we all see differently. Take from it what you take from it. Cry, laugh, scream, skip it and go listen to Olivia Rodrigo, I’m cool with all of it. I guess maybe I just want you to think for a moment. I’m not sure about what, but if I made you think I’d say I did my job.”
.
“Success or failure (whatever that even means) is decided by me and me only. There’s a weird sense of peace in being on your own.”
.
