The album was made when Jun Bum Sun lived in the UK to attend
University of Oxford, and he said he was inspired by it around the time he studied the
American Revolution and the
French Revolution.[1] The album is a concept album with a revolution and love theme influenced by
Jeon Bong-jun, and there is a picture of Jun Bum Sun with a
sangtu on the album cover.[3] The album received great attention due to the
2016 South Korean political scandal and
2016–2017 South Korean protests that took place a few months later. In an interview, Jun Bum Sun said that the revolution and lyrics of his album are "perfect coincidences."[4]
Ko Jongseok of
Music Y described the album as a valuable work and a great prop that was prepared and completed for this very moment and armed the public with music for the next time.[6] Na Wonyoung of
Weiv said "Their second album Revolution Songs, which is an extension of the Love Songs, tells the unique concept of "Joseon Rock-Kn Roll" of a revolution from below caused by the people of the late
Joseon Dynasty."[7]
