The album contained Yonezu's previously released singles "Flowerwall" and "Unbelievers" as well as "Mirage Song", which he had performed on Twitcasting.
The title was inspired by Will-O-Wisp and the musicians of Bremen. Will-O-Wisp illustrates turning one's back on a prosperous life and going into the darkness; the musicians of Bremen grow jaded of their current life and decide to head to Bremen, but never reach the city. Yonezu wished to express the journey's importance over the destination.
The album was released with three versions: an art book version with original illustrations by Yonezu; a video version containing a DVD with music videos; and a regular version with only a CD. The first production of all versions included a serial number for an advance ticket lottery for his live tour Ongakudan, to be held from January 2016.
Yonezu won the Excellence Album Award at the 57th Japan Record Awards for Bremen.
All tracks are written by Kenshi Yonezu, with collaborators noted.
