MLV said of the music, "I recorded at my home in Wimberley Texas this past January, before I moved to live in Oslo. There’s a lot in there about family joy, and pain, and fear of the unknown. We moved because my Norwegian father in- law was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. It’s been a crazy year, but you do what you have to do for the ones you love. I guess that’s the moral of the next LP".
