It’s a blessing and a curse for those of us who have this extra sensitivity.”[16] Man on the Rocks was released on 3 March 2014, after initially being planned for 27 January.

The boxed set also includes a 16-page CD size booklet, four art cards and a certificate of authenticity.

"Nuclear" was featured in the E3 2014 trailer and soundtrack for the stealth action game Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

The Guardian newspaper called the album "a curious but likable diversion from his multilayered new-age work."
