Background edit

Around this time, the band were being influenced less by metal and more by alternative, with Renkse citing Jeff Buckley, whose song "Nightmares by the Sea" was covered on this album, as well as Radiohead as examples.[3]

Renkse's close friend, Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth, was present to help record, produce and work on ideas for vocal tracks.[3]
