Lewis revealed the following in an interview with Audio Antihero Records. 'Em Are I is probably the one I feel best about as a representation of a well thought-out studio album, where I had the time to get things a bit more how I wanted them instead of just ending up with what I got accidentally. I think the "Mini-Theme" track at the end of Em Are I is just about the best song recording I've managed to do, I'm very happy with how that came out.
