The album was conceived and compiled by Spoon lead singer Britt Daniel, who chose the track list to act as an introduction to the band for new listeners.[11] Other tracks, such as "My Mathematical Mind" from Gimme Fiction and selections from A Series of Sneaks, were considered by Daniel but were cut due to time constraints.[11] Although greatest hits compilations were uncommon by the late 2010s, Daniel chose to create Everything Hits at Once based on his fondness for such compilations, in particular Standing on a Beach by The Cure and Substance 1987 by New Order, which had introduced him to those artists in his youth.[11]

A companion compilation, titled All the Weird Kids Up Front, was released in August 2020 and featured a track list selected by Spoon fans.
