The track comes from the 2021 album Access All Worlds, a contemporary work of melodic, progressive extreme metal with singing and growling. Metal Blade Records issued some statements about who this Danish band is: "By March 2018 the band found its voice and narrator; Jón Aldará (Hamferd) and the journey of bringing the album its story and full identity could begin – and it began tremendously in November 2018 with the four members setting of with Voyage of the Garganey I. 'It was our absolute biggest dream come true when Jón joined the band. We had met him a couple of times at Hamferd and Iotunn concerts and I was deeply touched and literally blown away by his singing and performance. He's a singer who is artistically in contact with something magically and technically able to break so many boundaries', says guitarist Jesper Gräs. But still, the last piece was missing and in October 2019 bassist Eskil Rask (Sunless Dawn) joined IOTUNN, recorded the bass for the album and completed the circle. 'When Eskil joined the band we already had a deadline when we had to go mix and master the album. He just went for it! He really strengthened the band musically and as a collective', saysdrummer Bjørn Wind Andersen."

Metal Blade Records also issued the following: “We wanted to make an epic, strong and atmospheric yet rocking record both musically and lyrically. Jón came with the idea based on space travelers trying to find answers to the apocalypse which reflects many of the impressions, feelings and thoughts human life holds that originates from something vast, mysterious, chaotic and breathtakingly spectacular. Everything just went berserk regarding the album theme. Is everything occurring in the lyrics just a dream? Is the album an allegory for any individual’s chapters in life? Where does the album actually start and end? Stuff like that. We find that the album can be interpreted in various ways. For us, the album is a truly exciting journey and we hope it will be for the listener as well on his or her own terms”, says guitarist Jens Nicolai.
