The track "Distortion" is a collaboration of Mick Harris with Kool Keith and Submerged.[2] It was released as an EP with four mixes and a fifth, longer mix was brought out on the album.[3] Regarding Kool Keith's lyrics, Harris commented "I knew that he’d nail something, and it’s as simple as that".[2] In June 2021, the album was released and Harris shared the track "At One Point" exclusively via The Wire.[4]
The album received positive responses from critics. The Sleeping Shaman review said "The Only Place is an album to get lost in, to focus a mood on, rather than put on for sheer instant gratification".[5] Igloo Magazine admired the "mangled, rugged and exploratory sonic displays".[6] The Quietus commented "The Only Place demonstrates anew that there is such a thing as a signature Scorn sound – primarily instrumental, driven by dub's celebration of bass, beats and space, at once weirdly comforting and with a strange, forbidding edge".[7]
