An exclusive acoustic version of the album track "I Just Do" was made available as a free download from the band's official website.

Boy Cried Wolf is generally considered to be the bands most melancholy album to date. It is something of a concept album which focus' on lead singer Dan Gillespie-Sells' break up from a 5-year relationship. The bands website states that the first song written for the album was "You'll See", with the song being written upon returning home following the break-up.
Music videos were produced for the tracks "Blue Murder", "Rescue", "Fall Like Rain" and "Empty Restaurant".
The album received critical acclaim. Q Magazine and Sunday Times Culture both claimed it be the best album of the band's career, it also received a 9/10 rating from Holy Moly and a 4/5 from The Daily Mail.
