On Insomniac Folklore's website Hentschel says; "We were not expecting to make this album. Really it came out of nowhere. The plan was to follow up last year’s L.P. by starting production on our violent and beautiful concept album Hands, Lips & Eyes but somewhere along the way things went wonderfully wrong." Then talks about what to do with these new songs "One night I was racking my brain about the direction of this project and Adrienne threw a couple of ridiculous seeming ideas my direction. We laughed about the ideas for a bit but then I thought about it... A church that is a circus. Tongue in cheek meets serious. No, This is the direction this album needs to go... I ran with it."
Daniel Otto Jack Petersen of the horror punk Group Blaster the Rocket Man, wrote and performed spoken word on "For Certain Serpent Servants" and "World Without End."
