Pitchfork reports that Dupuis said of the book, "I’d lost friends to overdose, and felt anger at the ways in which live music largely ignores the needs of musicians and music fans who use drugs or who face addiction - and how in many ways, artists are encouraged toward untenable living. The chronic underpayment of musicians, the inseparability of venues and alcohol sales, and the arts’ increasing absorption into algorithmically-motivated tech felt like interwoven concerns."
Dupuis' second Sad13 album Haunted Painting was released in September 2020.
