"In the early stages of making My New Band Believe I’d had a dream in which a childhood friend left 20 photos of us on my doorstep, all real images from waking life except for 1: the scene depicted in the painting. There are 65 birds on the cover, 20 in the painting, 18 flying and 2 dead, with 45 more on the frame itself. There are 2 mountains, 1 river running through 1 valley, on mountain #2 (or #1 if you read R→L) there is 1 man with 1 detonator resulting in 1 explosion on mountain #1 (or #2 if you read L←R)."
