Hoʻokumu ʻia ka album e ka track Good Grief, ma ke ʻano kūʻokoʻa o Bastille. He euphoric a me ka melancholy. Hoʻohana ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i nā laʻana mai ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻo Weird Science me Kelly Le Brock.
Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka album ma ka hale liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi ma lalo o Ladana kahi i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ai ka album multi-platinum mua Bad Blood.

I ka makahiki 2019, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Bastille i kekahi mau mele (Quarter Past Midnight, Doom Days, Joy and That Nights) ma mua o kā lākou album ʻekolu ʻo Doom Days.
I ka lā 14 o Iune, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka mana piha, a me 11 mau mele. Ma hope o ka hakakā ʻana i ka palaho honua ma Wild Word (2016), he mea maʻamau ka manaʻo o ka hui i ka pono e pakele, a lākou i hōʻike ai ma Doom Days.
Ua wehewehe ʻia ka album ma ke ʻano he album manaʻo e pili ana i kahi pō "ʻulaʻula" ma kahi pāʻina. A me "ka mea nui o ka escapism, ka manaolana, a me ka waiwai o nā hoaaloha pili." Ua wehewehe ʻia ka pāʻina me ka loaʻa ʻana o ka lewa o ka "huhū o ka manaʻo ikaika" a me ka "euphoria, ka ʻoluʻolu a me kahi ʻano pupule liʻiliʻi".
Ma muli o kona manaʻo, ʻo Doom Days ka album koʻikoʻi loa o ka hui. Akā, i ka hoʻonui ʻana o ka poʻe mele i ke ʻano o nā mele, ua hoʻonui lākou i ke kani. Me nā mele puʻuwai e like me ʻO kahi ʻē aʻe, aia nā mele e like me 4 AM (hele mai ke mele leo ʻoluʻolu a hiki i ke keleawe a me ke mele me ka holo mālie o kā lākou mixtape) a me Million Pieces (evokes 1990s nostalgia).
Ma Joy, hoʻohana ka hui i ka mana o kahi hui mele e hāʻawi i ka album i kahi hopena hauʻoli.
