With singles "Boston Square" and "Mildred (Lost a Friend)" receiving international support from BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe's Hottest Record in the World along with interviews on the show with frontman James and newcomer Matthew Veck-Gilodi, as well as touring with artists such as Bruce Springsteen and Muse,[2] the band have raised the profile of the album and seen a significant rise in their publicity and popularity since their last album release.
They toured the album starting October 2013, where they were supported by ex-Busted singer-songwriter Charlie Simpson and Big Sixes.
The band played the Main Stages at the Reading and Leeds Festivals for the first time in 2012 and they supported You Me at Six for their Final Night of Sin at Wembley Arena.
This change saw the addition to the line-up of frontman James Veck-Gilodi's brother Matthew (who had previously been performing with the band as a touring member) to play guitar and add additional vocals, and Max Britton as a pianist for the group, making the group a six-piece.
The album was produced and engineered by Lee Batiuk and written, in the most part, by James and Matthew Veck-Gilodi.
It also features choral vocals on "Caro Padre" by members of the London Youth Gospel Choir.
"Boston Square" is about a good friend of James Veck-Gilodi's called Phil who committed suicide.
One lyric of the song mentions a recreational ground "that he knew so well" that had been replaced "with worn-out football pitches, tennis courts and empty space."
Like the previous release, it was premiered as Zane Lowe's Hottest Record in the World for BBC Radio 1.
It features interviews with the band members, their families, the record labels BMG and A Wolf At Your Door and former vocalist Ryan Mellor.
