The album had been delayed from its originally proposed release date of July 2001 due to problems between the band and the label.[7][8] According to Matt Atlee of Australian Music Scrapbook website it was an "amicable split",[7] however Christie Eliezer of Music & Media Business News reported that "Despite what both sides say, the Mavis's split from Festival Mushroom Records and the canning of the July-due Rapture album was far from amicable."[8] In July to August 2001 the group toured Australia and performed tracks from the album,[8] before disbanding in December.[7]
Five months prior to the studio album's appearance, Festival Mushroom Records issued a compilation album, Throwing Little Stones... The Best of (20 October 2002), which included tracks from Rapture.[9] At subsequent reunion concerts by The Mavis's, in February 2013 and December 2014, they played material from all three of their studio albums.[10][11]
