Background and composition

The album was announced via a "reverse telethon" with Pauly Shore, in which Health contacted people which had previously called them on a designated hotline incorporated in their music videos. [3] [4] [5]

It is considered third remix album from Health, following Health//Disco and Health::Disco2. Additionally it also features three original compositions, including "Crusher", which was previously released via Adult Swim; [6] [7] these originated from a scrapped EP. Despite being a remix album, the band still made an effort to make it "feel like a real album" with the arrangement of tracks, placing more "high-powered" tracks towards the end. [2]
