The band had spent much of the four years since Storms Dressed as Stars performing in Australia and the US and retreated to rehearsal studios for two years, writing, shaping and editing new material. When the band did make rare live appearances, it was under an assumed name to test out the new songs. Guitarist Matt Davis said: "We wanted to make every song fully fledged, and I think we did become more serious about it. We realised that it is a privilege to be able to make a record, and a privilege to still be in a band. Making a third album is an achievement in itself in Australia, so we thought, 'Let's just make a cracking record with some darkness and some light'."[4]
