The album features a couple of contributions from notable singers. The track "Shatter" features Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine providing additional vocals and playing tambourine, and "I've Got a Friend" features Clairo and Claud speaking.
The trailer for the Netflix series XO, Kitty featured "Want Want" from this album.[11][12]
