Production (May–October, 2012)

The group began production of their fourth studio album on May 5, 2012 in their studio constructed in their hometown of Tyler, TX. The studio, built by members Weston Dupree and Garron DuPree, alongside their audio engineer Mark Schwartzkopf. The studio itself was built to be attached to the house of singer Sherri DuPree-Bemis, and Say Anything frontman Max Bemis. Upon completion of the studio in late April 2012, the group began the pre-production and tracking of the album in early May, 2012.

This album was the first of the group's albums to be entirely self-produced, recorded with virtually no outside influences. The album, though unnamed until after the recording process was completed, features a lush oceanic theme, complimented by a more layered atmospheric production.
