The band has stated that the album is to be a more upbeat follow up to their previous album Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones, with vocalist Liam Cormier saying the album was lyrically far too dark for what the band wanted to do.
In December 2011, Liam Cormier was asked about whether the groups sound has change much. I think sound-wise theres definitely more of the natural evolution of how gnarly we keep getting and how more refined everyone sounds. Id say the majority of our fans now have seen our band live and know how gnarly and ferocious it is, so trying to compress that into a recording still is kind of difficult. Like wed say I thought we did it pretty well on Bears, and then wed re-examine it and see theres still some elements that are bands influences steered away from the traditional hardcore record and took a wide variety of influences from indie rock bands like Fleet Foxes. Cormier, when asked about his influences, stated: In a lot of ways we get really inspired by non-metal bands. For me, I find I really like looking at other things because I just dont want to make a traditional hardcore record lyrically. So for me, I listen to a lot of indie rock and Ive been getting super psyched on a lot of that, like the new Helplessness Blues by Fleet Foxes.
