Patience Hodgson described the experience of the second album as a "really insular experience" compared to the "just for fun" experience of Gravity Won't Get You High. "We weren't playing live; we were sitting at home writing an album."{{cite news|author=Bernard Zuel|newspaper=The Sydney Morning Herald|title=Shiny, happy people |url=http://www.smh.com.au/news/music/shiny-happy-people/2008/08/22/1219262482552.html |accessdate=2008-09-21|date=2008-08-23}}
