Produced by Block Out leader Nikola Vranjković and featuring only one cover of a traditional Irish song, "Humors of Scariff", A Moment Like the Longest Day is more rock-oriented than the band's previous releases.[2]

In 2021 the album was polled 91st on the list of 100 Best Serbian Albums Since the Breakup of SFR Yugoslavia. The list was published in the book Kako (ni)je propao rokenrol u Srbiji (How Rock 'n' Roll in Serbia (Didn't) Came to an End).[4]
