Lead vocalist Kory Gregory states that the writing of the album took place over five years, including a full demo session recorded at University of North Carolina Asheville's studio through drummer Daniel Gorham's enrollment in their audio engineering program.
Musical themes
The album is a passionate tell all of Gregory's experience through an acid trip.[1] Conceptually, the record mirrors The Wizard of Oz split into three acts: The Heart, The Brain, and The Roar. “We just want to make it sound like the soundtrack to a Disney film played by a punk rock band," says Gregory, citing My Chemical Romance and Green Day as influences.
