Jamie Behar stated that the album was recorded in three weekends between November 2007 to February 2008. [3] Behar recorded all of his vocals and guitar parts in only a few sessions, allowing both Kevin and Steven Roche to record their respective parts for the remainder of the sessions. Due to schedule and personal conflicts, the band decided to make it their last recording. They would perform a worldwide tour to support the album in the summer of 2008. [4]

The band has gone on to state favorable things about the album. Behar stated that Some Blood is his favorite Off Minor album. [3] Steve Roche mentioned that his favorite Off Minor song is "Everything Explicit". [4]
