Overview

Demos for what would eventually become the 'anthology' album were initially written by Drew Fortier and intended for a then new Bang Tango album in 2015 for whom Fortier was guitarist for at the time. [3]

The rest of the band members came together and the album was written and recorded remotely in 2015. [4]

In 2016 the band released an early version of the song "New Leaf" along with a music video. [5]
