The band began playing the new material at concerts in 2009 to a favourable response.

The break-up addressed on this album is the break-up between lead singer Charlie Fink and former member Laura Marling, whose departure from the band led to the absence of female vocals. The Deluxe Edition of the album includes the film which is also titled The First Days of Spring. A trailer of the movie is available on their official website.
