Contents

Four singles were released ahead of the album's release: "Huge New Her", the self-titled track and "Found", which were released in late 2022, and "I Think I Might Be Weird", which came out in early 2023.

One Day was well-received by contemporary music critics, with the album enjoying "universal acclaim" on Metacritic and AnyDecentMusic. [1]

Background

The recording process of the album took over the course of three years, in part due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the music industry. [2] The guitars of the album were recorded one day December 2019 at Candle Studios in Toronto, [3] while the bass and vocals were recorded in February 2020 at Palmer Stone Studios and Candle Stone Studios, respectively.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the final mixing and mastering did not occur until April 2022. Mixing was undertaken by Alex Gamble while mastering was undertaken by Heba Kadry. [5] Bandmember Mike Haliechuk undertook production. [3]
