As of 2019, Keery was no longer a touring member of the band, and he later parted ways due to acting commitments.
[23] In a positive review of the album, NME called Keery "a musician of very high calibre who... dabbles in the kind of inventive, warped psychedelia that gently twists your melon and constantly shapeshifts around you," and compared his music to that of Tame Impala and Ariel Pink.
