Calum, my best friend…

5sos didn’t have to go that hard with you don’t go to parties, BUT THEY DID!!!!!!

“Coming into making these songs, I wasn't sure whether I could make something like the first album again on my own, or something I liked as much. So I tentatively was writing stuff. I'm always writing stuff, but I was like, ‘All right, I'm going to try and see what comes out, see if I can find what this sound is I'm looking for,’ and taking things from the first album that I really loved.”

– Luke Hemmings talking about his new EP, 'boy', for People.

“Getting to the end of this process and having these songs done and loving them more than the first album, I feel really accomplished and fulfilled because of that. I feel like I've found a sound, more of a sound of what it is. That's always destined to grow and change, but I do feel like it has more of a straight to the point, 'this is what it is,’ sort of feeling to it. And that's really exciting because as you grow as an artist, that's kind of what you're trying to get to.

The songs are better, I think they sound better, and I think it feels more refined, but it's also scary because it's not just, ‘We were in COVID and I made these songs.’ It's more of an intentional like, ‘OK, I'm having a bit of a swing at it.’ ”

“I have a tendency to write pretty emotionally dark things, and I didn't want it to feel like a sad body of work. I wanted it to feel in the middle of those two things and feel a bit more how life feels, trying to sum up… I don't know, being human is so — from my experience, it's so up and down and my emotions are intense in both ways from day to day. So I wanted it to feel more melancholy and ride that line."
