This is the first album since Are You Are Missing Winner (2001) not to feature keyboardist Elena Poulou, who quit the Fall the previous year after separating from frontman Mark E. Smith, thus reducing the band to a quartet for the first time since the early 1990s. Smith died in January 2018, and no new or archival recording have since been issued as of late 2021, making New Facts Emerge the band's probable final album.
The title of the song "Victoria Train Station Massacre" caused controversy, as the album announcement came just a week after the Ariana Grande concert bombing, which occurred in a foyer connecting Manchester Arena to Manchester Victoria railway station. A representative for the band confirmed that the track's title was an unfortunate coincidence, and the artwork was sent off for manufacture "long before the terrible events in Manchester".[4]
