Like their last two releases — "TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME," and "Love It If We Made It" — the band premiered the jazzy song via Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show on Apple Music.

Speaking to Lowe via Facetime, vocalist Matty Healy spoke on the track's meaning. "'Sincerity Is Scary' is about me trying to denounce all of that postmodern fear of like being real, you know? Like irony first, irony first. Make sure you’re ironic because then you can't be judged on being a person," Healy said.
