While it may be for a follow-up to their masterful 2001 album Since I Left You, Since They Left Us takes the format of a documentary trailer, with clips of Ariel Pink, Danny Brown, and Father John Misty all describing their involvement with the reclusive group. Pink's vox pop is the most tantalizing: "The rumors are true, I suppose. I think what they do is very strange, it's nothing like the way I work...I was just their stooge."
