Production
Described by vocalist/guitarist Dan O'Connor as being "one of the most raw records we've ever made, it's just us playing. No fancy computer shit. Made for singing along and head-banging." "Go Down in History" was re-recorded for the album, with the original version appearing on the Go Down in History EP the previous year.
The album was produced by the band and Kurt Ballou at God City Studios. Ballou also engineered and mixed the sessions with additional help from Robert Cheeseman and Phil Dubnick. "Go Down in History" was produced and mixed by Machine. Brad Boatright mastered the album at Audiosiege.
