"Can You Blame Me" comes from New Glow, the fifth album by Matt and Kim, which Harvest Records released on April 7, 2015. For it the duo went back to Lars Stalfors, who had produced their self-titled debut: he produced, engineered and mixed this track, with singer and keyboardist Matt Johnson co-producing and Jeff Becerra assisting on the engineering.
After the self-recorded Lightning, New Glow went the other way, a dance-pop record that borrowed more from the mainstream than anything the pair had put out before, with lyrics drawn from Johnson's relationship with drummer Kim Schifino. Reviews were split: some writers enjoyed the fun of it, but plenty heard the polish as a step down and rated it their weakest.
