On the track, Young said “‘Day of Atonement’ is a kind of collage of images and sounds and dreams and different relationships. I wanted the song to be both abstract and tangible, in the way that dreams can be. It’s a bit of an outlier for me –I usually try to write towards clarity, but this song is more impressionistic because it’s about parts of myself that I struggle to look at squarely, which are experiences around care and codependency and addiction. The recording was made from many layers with a huge bed of drones by Euan, Jim White-inspired drums from Olly, melancholy pedal steel by Harry and improvised, ethereal backing vocals by some of my friends from Deep Throat Choir.”’
