The band described "Tennis" as "a paypig's personal redemption narrative, set in "the city", and told in two parts: A twisted tale of two lovers' back and forth, bound by cricket, bodybuilding and money. A story as old as time".[2] Far Out Magazine dismissed the single as "derivative", and gave it a 5.8 out of 10.[3] The second single, "Loaded", was released on 25 May 2022.[4]

Sean Murphy-O’Neil further said of the album that it "is a gentle story of true unrequited love, meant to playout like a 2006 romcom. It is about growing old and believing everything will fall into place, the mundanity of doing dishes, and leaving oppositional film reviews.[5]
