Background
The band traveled to Brazil to record the album.[3] Guitarist Andrew Kline commented the album would be "more along the lines of In This Defiance". It was also revealed that Igor Cavalera, formerly of Sepultura and Cavalera Conspiracy, would be handling all drum duties for the album. Also contributing to the album were members of fellow Californian hardcore band Terror.[4]
