"Top Notch" was the first taste of Cope, Manchester Orchestra's fourth studio album, issued in 2014 through Loma Vista and the band's own Favorite Gentlemen imprint. Andy Hull wrote the words and the whole band shares the music credit, and they produced it themselves with Dan Hannon, their long-time partner behind the glass, with Brad Fisher engineering.
The Atlanta band made Cope entirely in the home studio they had just finished building, then handed it to John Agnello to mix at Fluxivity Studios in Brooklyn. The press release sold the album as 38 minutes of relentless, unapologetic heaviness, and this was the song picked to open the argument.
