The DELUXE VERSION comes as a limited edition double LP with an exclusive LP of demos and both records on pink vinyl.

"Seeing Other People" was written and produced entirely by Foxygen at Sonora Recorders in Los Feliz, California and recorded and mixed by Shawn Everett. Foxygen's keen ability to experiment with and expand on classic pop and rock sounds is complemented by legendary drummer Jim Keltner (Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Pink Floyd and many more). "Seeing Other People" sees Foxygen at their best, "chopping up pop culture and spinning it into a sticky, wicked web." For those looking for a description of the album's style, Foxygen suggest "Sad-Boy Plastic-Soul Adult-Contemporary Cartoon-Noir Music." Let it stand. Aptly named after the saying you often hear from adults - "maybe we should see other people" - "Seeing Other People" is Foxygen's most explicit "goodbye" album to date: "Goodbye to the drugs, to the partying. Goodbye to my twenties now, goodbye to my Saint Laurent model body. Goodbye to the touring circus _ that's right, no more shows or tours for a while. Goodbye, hopefully, to the anxiety attacks. Goodbye to beating myself up because I didn't fit into those leather pants anymore. Fuck it. Goodbye to the facilities. And goodbye the leeches in my life," says Sam France. The album is filled with self-referential stories of touring, partying, being young, being in a band and saying goodbye to the raw, darker aspects. "I remember a quote from Rado sticking with the press a few years ago about how we'd lived every rock n roll cliche in, about, one year. Well, here's the album about it. Another movie. I don't know what's next. But here's a snapshot of it all."
