Arcade Fire's Win Butler and Régine Chassagne spoke Radio X's George Godfrey about their latest effort and revealed it's about "unconditional love".
Butler revealed: "We have a nine year old who's a really amazing dude who we spent a lot of time with and I was sort of thinking about the world that he's going to face."
Arcade Fire reveal inspiration for Lookout Kid
The frontman added: "When I was a teenager high school was just a gauntlet and I was thinking about just how complicated it's gotten socially. You really need thick skin and to be able to take a hit and know that you're loved and know that love isn't based on test scores or how good you are at something... That there's something that's deeper.
"And you know, Unconditional love is something that's difficult to tackle, which is why we took a side of a record to try and tackle it."
