The band's fourth album connects 1980s pop culture and 2020s virtual reality in hyperarticulate, engaging pop songs.

"A full-fledged concept album with an elaborate backstory involving a fictitious company called Future Inc, whose products allow users to escape into virtual worlds limited only by their own imaginations....Bastille clearly approached their subject matter with the right critiques in mind.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "A sleek pop record that explores millennial anxiety in a world of rapidly evolving tech.", "Bastille steers away from typical attitudes to offer a less sensationalised and pessimistic spin on things....Grooving their way around an uneasy subject matter, Bastille sucks listeners into their playful vision of a dystopian universe."
