The artwork was reminiscent of ''In the Land of Grey and Pink'' (1971) by Caravan. AllMusic reviewer Tim Sendra wrote that apart from "The Golden Bough", which was the only upbeat song on the album, it was otherwise full of "moody, understated ballads and cinematic instrumentals". ''Musikexpress'' Thomas Weiland noted that it sounded "even more psychedelic" than their previous works as Skelly "devoutly reports on British history and nature".

Deltasonic is a British record label based in Liverpool, England. Previously joint ventured with Sony Music, it is now totally independent. It was formed by Alan Wills, the former drummer with Liverpool bands Shack and Top, and associated with the ' cosmic Scouse' and 'scallydelica' music scenes.

However, after three promo-only releases on clear 10-inch vinyl, including the first release by 'Mountaineers' (credited on the record as 'The Sandpeople'), he decided to move on to new areas and, with the help of his partner Ann Heston and consultancy from Simon Duffy (Tri Tone), he started a new label called Deltasonic Records. The name is an amalgamation of two ideas, as Wills explains: "I predominantly wanted it to be a guitar label and the guitars we liked are rooted in the blues, so Delta, and Sonic is from Sonic Youth, just the c ...
