Thematically, the album is emotionally charged and deals with anger, revenge, depression, self-loathing, self-healing, and catharsis.[7][8][9] Musically, it has been described as pushing the boundaries of metallic hardcore, using elements from progressive metal, black metal, screamo, and, less frequently, shoegaze.[2][10][11][12]
The album received widespread critical acclaim; in particular, vocalist Djamila Boden Azzouz garnered praise for her adept harnessing of both clean and screamed singing styles, earning the band comparisons to Rolo Tomassi and Deftones.[2][10][11][13] Both Kerrang! and Metal Hammer placed it within their top three albums of 2022.[14][15] The latter also named it the year's best metalcore album.[16]
Three music videos have been released in support of the album, one for "They Fear Us", another for "Camera Eats First"[7][17] and, on 31 May 2023, one for "Fluorescent".[18]
