Recording, release, and reception
The album is the first for the band on Rise Records and reunites them with Steve Albini, who recorded two albums of theirs almost 20 years prior. Edwin McFee of Hot Press reviewed the release, giving it a score of seven out of 10, noting that this album shows off the band's best qualities, without departing from their "tried and trusted style".
