Writing for the album began around January of 1995, with Recording taking place in the Fall of the same year, and mixing taking place between December 1995 - January 1996. The album was somewhat of a continuance of the band's percussive, psychedelic sound, albeit this time with more of a post-grunge twist tinged with elements of both progressive rock and pop.
