Like the other singles released since the band's semi-reunion in 2016, it was conceived during the Chinese Democracy recording sessions from the late '90s to 2000s.
[5] The song features former Guns N’ Roses members Brain and Chris Pitman as well as composer Marco Beltrami and guitarist Marc Haggard.
[9] Of the song, Sebastian Bach said: "I was at a Christmas party at [Axl Rose]'s house last year and he played me all of Chinese Democracy - Four Albums - worth of material.
Slash said of his contributions to the song "Basically, the material was there, and I just got in there during covid and re-did the guitars, Duff did the bass, and we went from there and just put it out.
The verses match some spindly arpeggios and sitar that remind me of Abbey Road-era The Beatles with something like a trip-hop beat.”[3] Metal Injection described the track as having "Korn-esque clean/FX'ed guitars in the verse […] a big, angular chorus with a completely blown-out vocal track", calling it "out of the ordinary for Guns N' Roses".
