This album is the follow-up to 2016's critically acclaimed Is the Is Are. It is also DIIV's first project since frontman Zachary Cole Smith checked himself into "long-haul inpatient treatment" for substance abuse in 2017. Smith's treatment and recovery period are said to have played an important part in the making of Deceiver. Per a statement, Deceiver is described as "the soundtrack to personal resurrection under the heavy weight of metallic catharsis".[5]
Upon release, Deceiver reached number 177 on the US Billboard 200 and received critical acclaim as a drastic departure from DIIV's earlier work.[6]
