Released on 27 May 2016,[1] it was recorded at English Electric Studios, produced by Big Big Train, and mixed and mastered at Aubitt Studios by Rob Aubrey.

It is the first studio album to feature Rachel Hall and then-Beardfish lead vocalist Rikard Sjöblom as official members.

Both versions of the album contain the title track from Wassail, meaning that the vinyl release features all three of the original songs on the EP.

[2] Concluding with "All in all, this is a sprawling collection of brilliantly told stories with even more impressive music".

*Vinyl-only tracks (though both were previously released on CD on the band's 2015 EP Wassail)
