Background
editThe band released a statement about the album, saying "Does no one fall in love under fluorescent light? Pretty sure that's not true, as many an office romance could attest. But as a statement in support of love's delusions, we will stand by it. In love, the lights are different, softer; the air has more oxygen in it; and for a second, all you need is a good chorus to believe this might be the one."[8][9][10]
Singles
edit"Privilege" and "We Called It Love" were released as singles from the album.[11][12]
