It was released via Interscope Records in the United States, and was licensed through 4AD in Europe and all remaining territories.

Kyp Malone said that the title came from "a note that Dave [Sitek] wrote in the studio that said,

:"Dear Science, please start solving problems and curing diseases or shut the fuck up."
