Lead single "Silver" ranked at number 20 in Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2019.
Guitarist Johnny Took said of the album "[It's] about how people are always looking for something better. It's got that universal sense that anyone can relate to, that exhaustion you sometimes feel trying to achieve more or be something more."
At the ARIA Music Awards of 2020, the album was nominated for four awards, including Album of the Year.
At the AIR Awards of 2021, the album won Independent Album of the Year and Best Independent Rock Album or EP.
On 7 July 2021, the band released 36 copies of the album, each with individual sleeves created by artists Arkie Barton, Leif Podhajsky, Matty D'arienzo and Serwah Attafuah who each created 9 new art pieces from the record sleeves damaged in transit to their label's warehouse.
