It debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and earned praise from Rolling Stone, Esquire, and Billboard. In an official statement, Hozier admitted that he "enjoyed watching it come to life over the past year."

He also added:
"These were a collection of songs that nearly made it to the album under the circles of gluttony, limbo, violence and the outward ‘ascent’, but couldn’t for various reasons. I am so glad I still got the chance to share them with you, it really does mean the world that you're enjoying these songs so much. Thank you as always. So much love 🖤"
