Feeling that the band's previous two projects (The Alchemy Index and Vheissu) had a "sleepy feeling" to them, Thrice wanted to make a record that was "a little more upbeat and energetic." Thrice's members also hoped to save money and spend more time with their families by building a recording studio in guitarist 's home. Originally, the band expressed interest in tracking the record live (or recording the full band all at once, instead of each instrument individually and mixing together at a later time) in the home studio, however Thrice will no longer be recording in this style.
