The album touches on themes of exhaustion, depression and anxiety, contrasting the upbeat and vibrant sound of the record. The artwork of After Laughter, which features an impossible trident optical illusion, was designed by LA based designer Scott Cleary. It reflects a new sound and direction for the band.“After Laughter is about the look on people’s faces when they’re done laughing. If you watch somebody long enough, there’s always this look that comes across their face when they’re done smiling, and I always find it really fascinating to wonder what it is that brought them back to reality. So, that’s what After Laughter is.” - Hayley Williams. -- source link
