Production

Múm created Finally We Are No One while working in a lighthouse, recording it subsequently in a studio. The lighthouse proved influential in the creation of the songs, as reflected in the lyrics.

Critical reception

Mark Richardson of Pitchfork wrote, "Despite containing a few tunes that grate with their simple-minded sweetness, a handful of others are excellent." Cam Lindsay of Exclaim! said, "Glitches, moody organs and slow, heavy beats are thrown all over the place, mixed in with some of the most magical sounds, which seem as though they are covered in pixie dust." James Kelleher of Hot Press described it as "a luscious 56-minute lullaby for troubled heads, sung quietly and played with delicate precision."
In 2016, Paste ranked Finally We Are No One at number 11 on its list of the 50 best post-rock albums.
