Writing and recording

According to Connolly, drums and main guitars recorded at Architekt Music in Butler, New Jersey, with Mike Ferretti. The band spent about 10 days in the studio tracking all the main parts, then moved to Connolly's home studio 1119 in Orlando, Florida to track vocals, solos and overdubs. Also they tracked all bass while out on tour with Sevendust in Canada and the Midwest.[8]

Ignite My Insanity is a double album featuring 21 songs.[9] The album features two songs co-written with guitarist Mark Tremonti, and one song co-written by drummer Morgan Rose.[9]
