The album is also set to release through UNFD in Australia and New Damage in Canada. The album was recorded at Swedish recording studio Studio Fredman with producers Fredrik Nordström and Henrik Udd. The record's style has been described by the band as putting large emphasis on live performance. Throughout most of the interviews leading up to the record's release the band considered it their heaviest in their six album career. Since 2012- during the promotion of Daybreaker- questioning to how the record would sound the band always had plans for the record to sound heavy, however Tom Searle commented that they wanted a "Architects way of doing heavy". Incorporating heavier elements like blastbeat, a previously uncommon addition. The song "Red Hypergiant" is an instrumental track which uses a sample from a Carl Sagan film. There is a noticeable influence from post-rock bands Sigur Rós and This Will Destroy You on the style, creating a sound that "weaves in ambient elements that sometimes verge on gauzy and dreamlike. .
