The album is called After Hours because it represents those thoughts you have when you wake from a dream and realize the person you loved is gone. The last notes of Until I bleed Out echo the first notes of After Hours causing an endless loop in a toxic relationship. The three bonus tracks bring the relationship to its resolution. Take My Breath is the first single from Abel’s new album. It will give you an idea of where he is taking his music. Bravo for your reaction. Understanding the production allows me to better understand why I love the sound.

The three bonus tracks bring the relationship to its resolution. can u explain that? ive been listening to this album since day 1, but these comment called my attention because i have my version of whats he trys to explain but the (resolution of the relationship) caugth me off guard, ima be waiting for u r response! (sorry for my bad english im hispanic xd)

I very strongly believe the "person" of the toxic relationship is a drug. If not, it's obvious the many parallels he draws between them in the lyrics.

Definitely album of the year for 2020! So glad you were able to experience it because it is definitely a sonic experience. One of the things I loved lyrically about this album is since being a fan since House of Balloons till now, hearing that "I don't even wanna get high no more" was really big because drugs have always been a big part of his life and referenced in his music, so it's cool to see his growth after 10 years and how his perspective has changed. Very special album 👌🏾

I gotta say, before these videos on this album, I had largely ignored the weekend. Blinding Lights was a great song but I had heard songs in the past that turned me off the guy. But you pointing out the Vangelis similarity really helped me to see this album, and now broadly this guys work in a new light. What a great album, thanks for changing my mind!

I love this. The album hit me in the same exact way. It must be redundant at this point but Kiss Land is a must listen. It was so different from anything in the popular music scene during the early 2010s. And because of that it flew over a lot of peoples heads. I think you’d enjoy it

the album uses metaphors to talk about fame, love and drugs. in the cover, he's the victim of his own decisions, who made him bleed out at the end of the album. he takes off his disguise at the beggining of the album, let his ego die, and go ahead with full honesty.
