The EP explores social and environmental issues whilst highlighting Alberts' own journey and pressure to maintain health whilst developing his music career. Alberts told This is Radelaide "Every song on this record took months to write, till I got the subliminal/literal descriptive balance I envisioned. When I wrote the title track, 'Four Feet in the Forest', it was a real breakthrough song for me, personally - because I discovered a new maturity in creative description: and also began to lean less to writing about personal relationships with women in my life, and instead, emotion encapsulated in human form."[1]
