DIIV recorded Deceiver in March 2019 in Los Angeles with producer Sonny Diperri. Zachary Cole Smith, the band’s lead vocalist and guitarist, discussed “Skin Game” in a statement:

It’s an imaginary dialogue between two characters, which could either be myself or people I know. I spent six months in several different rehab facilities at the beginning of 2017. I was living with other addicts. Being a recovering addict myself, there are a lot of questions like, “Who are we? What is this disease?” Our last record was about recovery in general, but I truthfully didn’t buy in. I decided to live in my disease instead. “Skin Game” looks at where the pain comes from. I’m looking at the personal, physical, emotional, and broader political experiences feeding into the cycle of addiction for millions of us.

DIIV’s current lineup includes Zachary Cole Smith, Andrew Bailey (guitar), Colin Caulfield (bass), and Ben Newman (drums). The band recently confirmed that Devin Ruben Perez, who faced controversy after his 4chan posts were made public, has been out of the band since December 2017.
