The album tops the Billboard Top Alternative Albums and Top Hard Rock Albums charts, and debuts at number eight on the all-format Billboard 200 chart, moving 62,000 equivalent album units. On May 21, Josh Freese was announced as the band's new drummer, and during the livestream they debuted the song "Nothing at All". As early as mid-2021, Dave Grohl had already been planning for a follow up album to Medicine at Midnight (2021).
