Inheritance Tax

BEHIND THE WORDS

About the song

Families pass down far more than property: language, humour, work ethic and recipes, but also fear, silence, anger, scarcity and expectations. Understanding where those patterns came from allows us to decide which ones continue.

Its place on the album

From this point, the album moves inside the house. The inherited world becomes an inherited family life, with language, habits, affection and difficult patterns all part of what one generation hands to the next.
