Creature of Habit captures self-destructive coping mechanisms, overthought mistakes and an endless revisiting of fear and dread, translating a scattered internal monologue to an explosive and dynamic insight into Alfie's songwriting. The song pulls back the curtain on the mind at the centre of Mad By Mourning's nightmarish themes and lyrically recounts the habits and rituals of a sleepless night. These experiences are bottled up in a frenzy of biting guitars and rolling drums in the theatrical storm of Spook-Rock, dragging the listener along for the ride.
