The song was released on April 14, 2022 as the second single from Motionless in White's sixth studio album Scoring the End of the World. [3] [4] The band released a reimagined version of the song on August 26, 2022 called "Masterpiece: Motion Picture Collection". [5]
"Masterpiece" was written by Chris "Motionless" Cerulli, Justin deBlieck, Drew Fulk, Steve Sopchak, and Erik Ron and composed by the band. The song has been described as a "heavy ballad". [6] In a press release, Cerulli said:
"Masterpiece is a song which I feel embodies the raw and brutally honest nature of what makes Motionless in White. It took me many years to fully recognise that these are the types of songs that truly are the lifeblood of the relationship between the band and our fans. There is something really powerful and magical in being able to write a song that not only expresses your own deepest emotions and feelings, but to write something that may express the feelings of those who find it hard to articulate their own at times. It is on another level of special. In my own experience as a listener, these types of songs have always offered comfort amidst the pain, and Masterpiece is my way of returning that energy back to the universe for others to potentially find and carry with them. We're all going through something dark in our heads on a daily basis, so why not go through it together?" [7]
The music video for "Masterpiece" was released on the same day as the single was streamed. Directed by Max Moore, the video show the band in an abandoned home, sifting through tokens of a lost past until a cathartic blaze burns it all down. [8]
