Writing

Frontman Chris Hannah said of the writing process:

"For most of the songs I wrote on this record I tried to go in with a different philosophy than I have in the past. Instead of labouring over every word and making everything perfectly fit some sort of end result, the rule was 'First thing out of my mouth is the first thing that goes on the paper.'"[6]

And of his current position as a songwriter:

"I think back in the Less Talk era, it was more like, 'Give me the fuckin' bullhorn and let me talk about me.' But I've modified that position somewhat. People say they're tired of hearing white, male voices, and so am I. I'm fuckin' tired of hearing my fuckin' self."[7]

Reception

Victory Lap peaked at No. 68 on the Billboard 200 on October 10, 2017.
