The album was co-produced by the band with Rich Costey, and was preceded by the lead single "Alligator".
Background
Lead singer Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir said that while writing the album she had grown "really tired" of writing songs on an acoustic guitar as it "brought out things in that were predictable", so she began working on a laptop at home, "figuring out all these new sounds and being curious about them". Nanna said lead single "Alligator", called "driving and percussion-heavy" by Billboard, began like a "dance song", but that it is not entirely representative of the album's sound. She described the album as "more poppy and brighter" than the band's previous album, 2015's Beneath the Skin.
Critical reception
The album received positive reviews from music critics. It holds a rating of 70 on Metacritic, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.
Commercial performance
Fever Dream debuted at number nine on the US Billboard 200 with 34,000 album-equivalent units, of which 30,000 were pure album sales. It is Of Monsters and Men's third US top 10 album.
