Background

The reformation of the band was announced at the 2013 reunion in Baltimore, where Todd announced that the band was to reunite and put out a new album the following year. The band officially reunited on October 10, 2013. The band was still signed to the Rotten Records label, but receiving no financial support from the label, the band started a fundraising campaign on Indiegogo on February 6, 2014. Asking for $30,000, they reached their goal in under 24 hours, and by the time the fundraiser closed on March 18, 2014, the band had raised $85,122. The album was recorded shortly after, and released on July 22, 2014, through Rotten Records. The album's final, untitled track features Todd Smith thanking everyone who contributed to the Indiegogo campaign by name, as well as promising a follow-up album to be recorded in 2015.
