Steve Kilbey wrote the following about this album on his blog on May 18, 2014 ("on track"):
meanwhile the churchs record is very near completion
it will comprise of fifteen tracks
7 of which are now mixed and ready to go
it is nothing like you or i think it will be
it is complex ambiguous and joyful
your preconceptions will be shattered
something new has emerged
i am quietly confident this album will be universally acclaimed
within its own sphere of references naturally
within its own genre it is a triumph
some advertisements say
obey your thirst
i obey the music
that was trying to come into this existence
with myself as part of a team dedicated only to the music and the music only
we are deemphasised as personality x and y
none of you will know who did what and who was the driving force
because all four elements strove together for the musics sake
the music became the all
the song was everything not the singer
my mission in this life has been to make people happy with songs
then this will put a smile on your mind
because we have experts here tinkering with the mechanisms of rocknroll
we have experience and enthusiasm and we
have made a fucking good record
despite everything
time has come for a reassessment of the b®and the church
we poured heart and soul into this
i channelled other voices who came rushing out my throat
i cant wait for you to hear it
let the naysayers say nay for now
lets hear them after they hear the fucking thing
or my name isnt..uh...
fuck
anyway just a few months longer
further/deeper than ever before
Steve added the following short description about this album on his blog on May 31, 2014 ("where it's all at"):
further/deeper is its own cosmos
it picks up from U23 and it accelerates outwards
it contains big epic numbers
and it contains pure pop songs
templates of jingle jangle masters
it contains oddities and novelties
it contains some huge thumping things
it will surprise you baby oh i promise you that
