Background
On February 14, 2018, the Chainsmokers revealed the single's release date and artwork on social media. The artwork features a heart-shaped steak on a plate, surrounded by red vegetables. They posted an audio preview the day after.[2][3] The song was compared to Twenty One Pilots' change of sound, with the duo having switched their electronic dance music style for "palm-muted, pop-punk guitars and an occasional synth line" and a "radio-friendly" alternative rock sound.[4][5][6]
