Tyler Hubbard told Entertainment Tonight: "We've been working on that album for over a year now, so BK and I are definitely ready."[4] On the sound of the album, he remarked: "A lot of the music is just kind of a throwback -- an FGL take on kind of what we grew up on, '90s country. It's a well-rounded album. We got stuff we wrote and recorded just for the live show. We got some collaborations with Jason Derulo, Jason Aldean. So, there's a little bit of everything."
At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has an average score of 58 based on 5 reviews, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[5] Dave Simpson of The Guardian rated the album two out of five stars, heavily panning the album's cliched bro-country lyrics.[9] Jonathan Bernstein of Rolling Stone also gave the album two and a half out of five stars, describing it as "a defensive, winking response from the act that’s come to serve as shorthand for everything wrong with modern country." and adding "It’s full of attempts to shore up their credibility, along with jabs at detractors (see the title track and the Nineties-rap-referencing skits)."[8]
