When the band began to record the album they were without a drummer (founding drummer Wade Youman had been expelled from the band in 2003, though he would return 10 years later). They were joined in the studio by Adrian Young of No Doubt and Tony Palermo of Pulley who filled in on drums for the recording. The band got along so well with Palermo that by the time of the album's release he had joined as their permanent drummer. Here's to the Mourning was also the band's last album with original guitarist Rob Brewer, who was ejected from the group in March 2005, a month after the album's release.
