Background and recording
After signing with No Name Music/Elektra, Index Case headed to California to record their major label debut, The L. However, soon after the album's completion, No Name Music folded, and Index Case was left without a label. During this period, bassist Korey Birkenholtz left the band for personal reasons, and Nick Borror was selected as his replacement.
Index Case soon joined Mortal Music, operated by Tim King of Soil. They used the L recordings to create a self-titled album released on September 27, 2005. Index Case was remixed and its track listing was rearranged from the originally planned L release. Other subtle differences were also made to specific tracks, including alternate intros, endings, instrumental additions/removals, and the removal of a bonus track.
Index Case features a nu metal style comparable to early Linkin Park. While elements have survived through various alternative metal bands, by the time of this album's recording, nu metal had long since passed its early 2000s peak and was no longer at the forefront of the rock music scene.
