Background

The album, along with its visuals, was released as a bonus DVD on deluxe edition, as an iTunes LP, and as an iTunes Pass feature in US only. As a part of the iTunes Pass program, those who purchased it received an unreleased track, named "Pourquoi", on 29 June 2010. The standard edition was released on CD, containing just the eight-track album.

Further is their first album not to feature any guest collaborations. Though there are no guest collaborations on the album in the traditional sense, Further features Stephanie Dosen on vocals and Bruce Woolley on theremin as session musicians. Tom Rowlands sang himself on certain tracks.

The album was the duo's first on Parlophone, ending fourteen years of releases on Virgin, although both labels are owned by EMI.

Although it charted in many other countries, the album was excluded from the UK charts because British chart regulations forbid prizes being used as enticements to buy albums, and all formats of Further included a competition to win an iPad.

In the United States, the album debuted at No. 63 on Billboard 200,[13] No. 3 on Top Dance/Electronic Albums,[14] and No. 15 on Top Rock Albums,[15] selling 7,000 copies in its first week. The album has sold 40,000 copies in the United States as of June 2015.[16]

Further was nominated for Best Electronic/Dance Album at the 2011 Grammy Awards, but lost to La Roux's self-titled debut album.

A number of its tracks were used in the media. The bonus track "Don't Think" was featured in the 2010 film Black Swan, in an altered form. The track "Dissolve" was featured as a playlist on the 2012 video game Lumines Electronic Symphony. The track "Snow" was featured in the 2015 film American Ultra. The track "Swoon" was featured as interface music in the 2011 video game PES 2012.
