Recorded at the home studio of Rick White, the album's producer and Doiron's onetime bandmate in Eric's Trip, the album is more rock-oriented than Doiron's other solo albums, revisiting the sound and style of Eric's Trip.[3]

The album's first single, "Consolation Prize", was released to radio in early February.[4]

Alternate versions of the songs "Heavy Snow" and "Nice to Come Home" were released on a split 7" single in May 2009. The single's other side featured the only two songs ever released by Calm Down It's Monday, a band which consisted of Doiron and Frederick Squire.

"The Life of Dreams" appeared in an iPhone commercial in July 2014.[5]
