Background and recording

The album was recorded in Wyatts studio, making this album the bands first return to recording in New York City in over a decade.[2] The album cover is a work by American artist Addie Wagenknecht currently part of the Whitney Museum of American Art’s permanent collection.[2] The naming of the title track is described as emerging from "Paul Banks’ improvisational vocal process, where melodies and phrases develop simultaneously.
