I Don't Feel Well

Along with the release of "The Night Won't Scare Me", an interview with Klinghoffer was published in Rolling Stone in which he mentioned that he began work on the album in March 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic was at its peak in United States. Klinghoffer mentions that during this time, unlike his debut album, he was able to fully concentrate on writing and recording an album in the same period of time.

Klinghoffer released a statement about the album's release, saying: "This album was made during and amongst some very new experiences. I hope it captures some of how it felt during this period. I'll feel better when this is behind".[2]

The day of the album's release, Klinghoffer commented on it via Twitter and Instagram: "There is a hell of a lot of noise out there so I apologize for adding to the pile of it, but, my hope is (if you're here and reading this you're inclined to listen to the noise that I make) it makes you feel a little bit calmer, a little bit safer, and a little bit more at peace... if only for a minute. I truly think we'll be okay. We just have to work together. Again, many many many thanks to everyone for all the love and support. Here's to feeling!!!".[3]

About the first single of the album "The Night Won't Scare Me", Klinghoffer told Rolling Stone that the song began with a chord progression that he originally composed for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but the track was completed "in a burst of creativity" after his departure.

"The Report" was released as the second single, about the song Klinghoffer said that was written the day that William Barr made his "obfuscation performance" about the Mueller Report. "I think I was sitting in bed, watching that scumbag blather, and playing chords that sounded like the image of spiders crawling out of his eyes. That wretched man. That's where the music was born," Klinghoffer told Spin. The song changed and finally ended up being a report regarding his state of mind in the present year, for a time was named after the album title.[4]
