It centres on the themes such as politics, the aftermath of the election of President Trump, the erosion of civil liberties along with the rise of the "surveillance state", love and personal recollection.

[3] Through a press release promoting the album the band characterised the record as "a sardonic and chilling reaction to dark times" with "moments of warmth and reflection”.

Speaking in an Interview with Clash Magazine Anand Wilder spoke about the band moving away from long song intros for the record: "We were following the Tom Petty credo of ‘don’t bore us, get to the chorus’".

"[6] Politics played heavy into the songwriting on the record with "Blue Skies Dandelions" alluding to the firing of James Comey by President Trump to ease the pressure of the Russia Investigation.

[10] "I'll Kiss You Tonight" was released as the lead single from the album on April 5, 2019, with an animated music video directed by Brooklyn artist Theodore Sefcik.

[7] Christopher Hamilton-Peach writing for The Line of Best Fit gave the album a positive review, scoring it 8.5/10 and praising the band's evolution: "Straddling eclectic unpredictability and hook-laden gleam, this effort sees the three-piece honing their sonic palette, as they have previously achieved with equal success in their oeuvre.

"[15] Sarah Bradbury of Clash Magazine gave the album 7/10, summarizing the record as: "Emanating joyful warmth in spite of a seething thread of cynicism amid troubled political times" whilst singling out tracks she wrote: "pure elation abounds in ‘Ecstatic Baby’".
