The album was band leader David Longstreth's reinterpretation of Black Flag album Damaged from memory having not heard it in 15 years.[1][2] The album features Longstreth on guitar and vocals, Amber Coffman on vocals and guitar, Brian McOmber on drums, Nat Baldwin on bass, and Susanna Waiche on vocals.[1]Angel Deradoorian would join the band shortly before the Rise Above tour on bass and vocals.[1] This album is the first that presents Dirty Projectors as a fully realized band rather than an individual project of Longstreth.
