Released on 17 July 2015 by Virgin EMI in the UK and Astralwerks in the US, it was their first studio album since Further in 2010. Steve Dub and Tom Rowlands recorded and mixed it, and Mike Marsh mastered it. The singles were Sometimes I Feel So Deserted, with vocals by Daniel Pearce, then Go with Q-Tip, then Under Neon Lights with St. Vincent, credited as Annie Clark. Ali Love sings on EML Ritual, Cate Le Bon on the title track and Beck on Wide Open. It debuted at number one in the UK, the duo's sixth chart topper, which made them the dance act with the most number one albums in Britain. The Guardian noted its attention-deficit-disordered raver dynamics, and AllMusic praised a return to their big beat roots.
