Lead member Matthew Houck recorded the album at his Nashville studio over the course of six months.

Houck considers the album the best he has ever written, as it explores "unspoken truths" that come in the process of "navigating home, partnership, and family".

[1] It features contributions from Jack Lawrence of the Raconteurs, Jim White of Dirty Three and his partner Jo Schornikow.

[4] On January 23, 2024, Houck debuted several songs from the record at The Bitter End in New York City before announcing the album the following day, alongside the release of the eponymous lead single.

[5] Houck calls "Revelator" the "best song" he has ever written that made him realize that he is in the process of writing an entirely new album.
