"I took, like, a month and then started to realize I like doing stuff, so I got a little bored," Styles explained Carson Daly during an interview on 97.1 AMP Radio via Radio.com.
He also revealed that he wanted to go in a different musical direction with his solo effort. "The last couple of One Direction records we made on the road and that was amazing and a lot of fun," he explained. 'And I think for me, I just wanted to kind of, more so than be different from that, I just wanted to get out of somewhere where I had all my friends and where I'd want to go for dinner at a certain time. I just didn't want to get distracted. I kind of just wanted to very much immerse myself in doing it."

Rhett made the revelation in a new audio update via a Big Machine blog. He shares "I took all of January and made album three. We cut 22 songs, which is way too many songs, and I think the next few months is going to be singing all those, getting them all mixed and then trying to narrow down which ones are the keepers"
He says that the project is "really all over the place. There's a lot of cool collaborations on the record. My dad is actually featured on the record, which is pretty cool. I'm trying to single handedly revive his 90s country music career. But uh, no, it's gonna be a fun record."

Underworld was one of the first tracks I wrote after the *Tz, Ka* EP. I've had one of these moments, where a feeling resonated with what I played on the acoustic guitar and the song was pretty much there within minutes. I usually take very long to write a song, it's hard work after all, but with this one it had been different.
Before we went into the studio, we supported Ghostpoet on his tour through Germany and Austria. I wanted to try the song out live and came up with a different instrumentation with my band, blending in my obsession of Stranger Things back then. We tried out a few repeating patterns for the ending, but they were quite different to what ended up on the album. I remeber us singing "love" instead of "sun" and feeling so cheesy about it (ha!). Ghostpoet used to watch our shows, which was super kind of him. He gave us feedback, too, which really helped gaining perspective in regards to the album in progress. He had a different favourite song, though, called Catch. You'll hear it on the album.
Sometime after the tour, we went into the studio with John Catlin and had a rough time figuring out the right tempo for Underworld. After weeks of indecision, we recorded a sped up second version. I remember asking myself how we could ever have thought the slower tempo would potentially be right (ha!). We also added a few percussion loops generated with one of the modular synths at Assault & Battery which added more depth and drive one night with John. At some point we decided that the song was ready and felt really good about it. I hardly ever hit the spot where I wouldn't change a thing, so it's good to have people around me who know how to handle that. It is not like I couldn't keep working on details forever.
Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself here and learn more about the Inner Tongue
