“A song lamenting dying crops and abused nature, inspired by Matt’s concerns of industrial greed and business monopolies. ‘Explorers’ is drenched in the sense of not belonging in your own world. Nearly called ‘Alien Explorers,’ Matt claimed, but "not in the way of aliens from outer space but in the way of feeling like an alien on your own planet. It’s about the intense desire to grow and expand – at some point nature will become the minority. I’m not sure if I’m really coming from an environmental thing – [Explorers] is where I’m singing about my views on property rights. The idea that corporations can own vast tracts of foreign countries. I’m not sure if the deal went through but, I think it was in Paraguay or Uraguay, the Bush family bought something like a million acres of land, which underneath contains the biggest natural water reservoir in South America. At some point there has to be someone who says: ‘That’s not right.’ Can BP buy Nigeria? At the moment they can. They could buy it and they kick all the natives out, shoot them down or whatever and just say, ‘We own this now.’”
