Meg Myers wrote "Numb" about Atlantic Records, the label she ended up leaving, and it became the lead single from her second album, Take Me to the Disco, in 2018. She has put it plainly: Atlantic chased radio singles and kept her under pressure, while all she cared about was making music and handing it to her fans.
She wrote it with Christian "Leggy" Langdon, who produced the album, working mostly out of his Topanga studio, after her earlier records had all been made with Doctor Rosen Rosen. Langdon is close to a one-man band here, playing bass, guitar, piano, synthesizer and percussion and mixing it too, with Victor Indrizzo on drums, Joel Shearer on guitar and vibraphone and Eric Gorfain on strings. Once the album was done, Myers and Atlantic parted ways, and she took it to 300 Entertainment.
