The LP was produced by Ezra Koenig and Ariel Rechtscheid, mixed by Dave Friedman, and mastered by Emily Lazar. Koenig wrote most of the lyrics for God alone was above us, which was “inspired and haunted by 20th-century New York City,” in 2019 and 2020. The cover image is a photo taken by Steven Siegel in 1988 at a subway cemetery in New Jersey, and the newspaper headline that appears, a reference to the explosion on Aloha Airlines Flight 243, gives the album its title.
Two songs from the album, “Capricorn” and “Gen-X Cops,” will be released on February 16.
