Tracks like "Chaos" critique information overload and societal decay with lines about "power, money, holy roads" and clinging to false securities, while the key single "Neverland"—released as an EP—evokes nihilistic escapism and isolation in a dreamlike void. Other songs, such as "Void" and "Dust to Dust," deepen this motif through depictions of emotional desolation and existential regret, underscoring Skold's multi-instrumentalist approach where he handled vocals, guitars, bass, drums, and programming to convey personal turmoil.

A limited digipak edition featured glow-in-the-dark artwork and two bonus tracks. The album debuted on the charts shortly after release, entering at a position that reflected its appeal within the metal . Critics noted its diverse riffing and catchy hooks but found it uneven in execution, with some praising the seamless fusion of styles while others viewed it as a solid but unremarkable supergroup effort. Prior to the full album, the band issued their debut single "(Don't) Waste It" on May 9, 2011, which served as a promotional teaser and later appeared as track five on I Declare: Treason. No additional singles, promotional EPs, or live recordings were released during the band's active period, which ended with their disbandment later in 2011.

The first, "All Humans Must Be Destroyed," dropped on June 27 as an AI-themed industrial track that critiques technological overreach. "Pop The Smoke," released in early August, served as the second single, delivering a high-energy industrial assault with pounding rhythms and dystopian lyrics.
