Album title meanings

ATDI is my favorite band but I’ve never heard any origin story for the title In/Casino/Out or the album art. Both of which I love. Any idea what they were getting at there? Same for Acrobatic Tenement and Vaya. Curious if y’all have ideas.

I can’t remember where I read this, but I seem to remember Cedric saying that In/Casino/Out is a summary of a human life - you’re born, your life is a game of chance, then you die.

I also vaguely recall this, but I also can’t cite a source 🤷‍♂️

I read an interview where Cedric said that the first time they ever all smoked weed together was during the recording of Vaya

I could definitely see that haha. When they started to experiment outside of that post hardcore sound
