"Line of Fire" comes from Junip, the self-titled second album by the Swedish band, released in April 2013 on City Slang in Europe and a day later on Mute in North America. The song is credited to the band as a whole, and they kept the circle tight around it: Junip produced and recorded it with Don Alsterberg, who also mixed it.
The album earned mostly warm reviews. AllMusic's Heather Phares called it "even more of a grower" than the band's earlier record, with bigger arrangements and production, while The Independent's Holly Williams still filed it under folktronica, slow to get going at times but capable of soaring once it lifts off.
