"Bad Love" was the first taste of Blue Skies, Dehd's fourth studio album: the band released it in February 2022 alongside the announcement of the record, which Fat Possum put out that May. Jason Balla, Emily Kempf and Eric McGrady share the credit for words and music.
The band didn't even agree among themselves on how far the album strayed from its predecessor, Flower of Devotion; Kempf thought the two were alike and Balla didn't. Pitchfork's Jayson Greene admired them for holding their course, and The Guardian's Ben Beaumont-Thomas found every song on it catchy and evocative.
