Background and production
While on tour in fall 2005, the band performed a new song, titled "The Way Out Is Broken". On January 12, 2006, the group released a demo of the song. The band had been reportedly working on the song for their third album, which was planned for release later in 2006. On April 10, it was announced that the band had signed to Sire Records. In the same announcement, it was revealed that the group would not release an album until 2007. On December 14, it was announced that the band began recording their third album. Production duties were handled by Ben Grosse, with recording taking place at Mix Room in Burbank, California.

From late February to early March 2007, the band supported Taking Back Sunday on their North American tour. The album was originally planned for release in mid-2007, before being released through Sire Records on October 30.
The first single, "Williamsburg", was released on September 18, 2007. The band used their appearance on the Projekt Revolution tour to promote the release. In January and February 2008, the band supported Saosin on their tour. "Hold the Door" impacted radio on February 12, 2008.
