The thing is, if you’re doing it, because it’s fun, and you love it, and all this shit, and it’s like, that’s great. Amazing. Do it, do it if you love it. But like, I get bummed when I see people and they’re doing this because they feel like they have to…? It was. I always let myself get to a point where it’s very, very vulnerable, and every album has its peaks; but I think this time it was more. I let it be more about other people as well. There’s obviously a lot of emotionally deeper, touchy or, sensitive seeming things, but, I think it’s just maybe more well done this time around.

There are glittery, sing-songy moments with a Merry Go ‘Round facade and dark lyrical turns with songs like lead single “FUNERAL GREY” and “2 BEST FRIENDS.” But more than ever, Waterparks does not hesitate to spiral out of control with aggressively charged moments and masterfully distorted sounds with Intellectual Property . Whether it is “REAL SUPER DARK,” the perfect blend of punk and electronic, the anthemic, thrilling ascension of “END OF WATER (FEEL),” or the untamed sonic beast, “RITUAL,” Intellectual Property proves that there is truly no limits to what Waterparks can do as a three-piece. I don’t know. It’s a weird thing, I’m not going to keep doing it if it no longer makes sense. But at the same time, I’ll have to still create because that’s just what I do. I think that it’ll still happen, if it makes sense. Sometimes you see bands of dudes that are really pushing it and it’s kind of a bummer after a while. You know what I mean? I never want to be looked at like that.

Thank you. That one’s gonna be so crazy live. For “RITUAL,” everything just builds and spirals. That song is like the “lashing out.” Waterparks Release Msic Video for "Not Warriors" and "Crybaby" With Nylon". Equal Vision. February 13, 2018 . Retrieved January 22, 2021. With collaboration on the brain, Knight is the first to admit that for many years, he was precious about his art and was hesitant to work with others. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic and quarantine, Knight changed his mind, which was evident on Waterparks’ previous album, Greatest Hits. This time around, Knight, who’s an outspoken fan of the U.K. boy band One Direction, finally got a chance to live out one of his dreams by working with esteemed songwriter Julian Bunetta, who co-wrote beloved One Direction classics like “Olivia,” “Infinity” and “Best Song Ever,” among others. “I flew to [Julian’s] place in Nashville, and we ended up making five songs together, two of them being ‘FUNERAL GREY’ and ‘BRAINWASHED,’” Knight recalls. And while he still plans to keep the majority of his music close to his chest long term, he won’t rule anything out. Knight would undoubtedly jump at the chance to work with everyone from Post Malone and Damon Albarn to Donald Glover and Toby Keith.
