"Seinfeld's a much bigger influence than Sartre," Get Well Soon's Konstantin Gropper laughs when confronted by some of the topics he's tackled on songs in the past. It's perhaps not what you expect to hear from a man known for making reference to the likes of Homer, Werner Herzog, Karl Marx, Hermann Melville, Cannibal Corpse and Henry Darger, but once you've made an album about the apocalypse - as he did with 2012's extraordinary 'The Scarlet Beast O'Seven Heads' - it's maybe time to address more alluring, commercially appealing subjects. Hence 'Love', Gropper's fourth and arguably most accessible collection. 'Love' echoes pop references, with Gropper fuelling his latest effort with a diet of Tom Petty, Marvin Gaye, Pet Shop Boys, Prefab Sprout, early R.E.M. and Fleetwood Mac.
