Background and production
Käptn Peng (real name Robert Gwisdek) had produced an album the prior year alongside his brother Johannes Gwisdek (Shaban), Die Zähmung der Hydra. This second album was created with Die Tentakel von Delphi.

Pre-release, "Der Anfang ist nah" was released as a single, and received a music video. The album is primarily rapped.

Themes
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung interpreted the album as dealing with themes of humanity's insignificance, and not merely commentary on society, but instead the universe. Musikexpress viewed it as dealing with intellectual detachment and madness, where "[h]umanity itself is only a footnote out of seven billion idiots". They noted it as focusing on Käptn Peng's mental health as a lyrical topic. Laut.de noted it as exploring existential questions.

Reception
Musikexpress positively reviewed the album, giving it five out of six stars, and complimenting the wordplay, calling it a "second masterpiece" from Käptn Peng. Laut.de gave it four out of five stars, with the reviewer praising the album as "extremely refreshing". Plattentests.de gave it a score of 8/10.

Musikexpress, while appreciative of the album, believed it would not appeal to the German rap scene, viewing Gwisdek as not fit for it, describing it as an album that would "not please the guardians of the hip-hop grail". Plattentests.de also described the album as "ostracized" by the rap scene.

The album reached position 60 on the German charts.
