The album's title is the ungrammatical feminine version of the Latin word for "digger". The album was partially inspired by the 2018 death of Björk's mother, Hildur Rúna Hauksdóttir, particularly the songs "Sorrowful Soil" and "Ancestress". The songs were written during and after the COVID-19 lockdowns, during which Björk returned to her home country, not having "been that much home since I was 16." The album features contributions from American singer Serpentwithfeet, Björk's two children Sindri and Ísadóra, Indonesian dance duo Gabber Modus Operandi, and a bass clarinet sextet.

The album's lead single "Atopos", along with its cover art, was announced on August 24. The release date of the single is to be confirmed.

Hyped for this! Utopia wasn't my favourite, so I'm excited about the potential dark/dance-y vibe.

Oh wow!

Album will be tender in between will feature songs about Bjork mother who passed away recently, and it won't be dark rave album as it was rumoured recently. it will be Bjork response to previous album and she calls this one "an emergency album"

Some song lyrics:

The machine of her breathed all night while she rested / Revealed her resilience / And then it didn’t
