Background

On June 15, 2017, the band announced their signing with Fearless Records, and premiered a new song "Feel Nothing".[3] The band worked with producer Drew Fulk, the first time they've worked with an outside producer on an album. The album was officially announced on November 19, 2017.[4]

The lyrics on the album deal with singer Landon Tewers "detaching himself from a toxic relationship" and "explores the stages of said relationship".[5] The album is the first by the band to be written and recorded as a full band, previous records were written and performed by Tewers entirely.[5] The band wrote 20 songs in preparation for the album.[6]

Tewers drew inspiration from pop acts including Sevdaliza, Jorja Smith and The Weeknd when writing the album.[6]

The album features a departure from previous sound, with electronic instrumentation and "R&B-inspired" clean vocals.[7][8]
