The album, preceded by the band's 2021 project, Self Loather, was written by Dennis Mikula, the band's lead vocalist, who recorded it in his home.[2] The title track was released as the lead single of the album on February 21, 2025,[6] alongside a music video directed by Blo0m.[7]
Remfry Dedman of Metal Hammer wrote in his review of the album, "Rose Thorn Necklace is stuffed full of unexpected ideas, twists and turns that belie its run-time," rating it eight out of ten.[5]New Noise Magazine referred to Rose Thorn Necklace as "what may be their most darkly divine record to-date", stating it "plays on disparaging concepts and exercises them through each woeful track in a way that feels like spreading ashes out into the sea."[2]Distorted Sound assigned the album a rating of eight out of ten, remarking "Rose Thorn Necklace proves there's still plenty left to give, and their leading man's vision to 'really explore some disturbing things…and tie all of those together' is realised impressively."[4]Blabbermouth, also rating the album eight out of ten, described it as "easily the most cohesive record of the band's career" and "deeply strange and quietly impressive."[3]
