"Working with Greg was so different to what we'd done before, but it also felt so comfortable and like he'd been in our band forever," the band said in a statement. "He doesn't try to make you write a certain kind of song. He just listens and then Jedi puppet masters the best work out of you. The opening synth riff of 'Get Out' was the first thing to emerge on our first day in the studio with him."
