Vocalist Howard Jones has stated that the album has a darker sound compared to their previous album Revival . [16] [17] Part of the album's dark theme was inspired by a car accident having injured guitarist Francesco Artusato that left him unable to play for some time, and his subsequent recovery. [18]
