So those are the first notes of the first song, the very first thing that he and Andrew Watt wrote together.

The song is called As You Lie There.

And we begin in this place of a lot of tension.

Yeah.

Strap in, folks, because we're about to talk about the opening chord of this first track on Boys of Dungeon Lane for the next 45 minutes.

I almost drove my car off the road when I hit play on this album.

And the very first thing you hear is this deeply dissonant arpeggiated chord played on the guitar.

It is such a bold way to start this album when people have such high expectations and they're so curious what it's going to sound like.

And the first sound is one of utter ambiguity and tension.

And it floored me.

I mean, I don't know how much you can say about three notes, but it was such a striking way to start this album.

Well, it's not even three notes.

It's four notes.

And I think we need to get to our town to talk about it.

We're having this argument before recording.

It's D, E-flat, B. I don't know where you're getting this phantom fourth note.

Okay, so I have here in my hands the Martin D-28.

That is the same guitar that Paul McCartney recorded Blackbird on.

Except you have to turn it around, so you're playing it left-handed.

True, I am not a lefty.
