Bassist and vocalist dUg Pinnick comments: "I feel like it's been forever since we put out a new album, and I'm ready for the world to hear our latest offering, hopefully, there's a little bit of everything that you love about King's X, three sides of one is the best way to describe it. The groove is with us!"

Drummer Jerry Gaskill added: "It's really gonna happen! The new record is coming out soon. I'm happy to be working with the team at InsideOut/Sony Music. I'm happy with the record. I'm happy everybody gets to hear it. It's a happy day. Or at least that’s what I'm telling myself. Hope you enjoy it!!!"

Guitarist Ty Tabor concluded: "I have a long-standing relationship with Inside Out and am so pleased that Inside Out/Sony is releasing the new King's X album."

Thomas Waber, president of the label, said: "We have known the guys forever and have been fans even before then. We are really looking forward to adding another album to their impressive legacy. Working on a King's X album is always a highlight and an honour!"

On working with King's X, engineer, mixer, and producer Michael Parnin commented: "I am very proud of the energy and work put into this album, especially of all the different vocal performances and varied musical influences mixed together as one. In true King's X fashion, we had several obstacles to overcome, and it wasn’t easy but hopefully worth it to the amazing die-hard fans out there who have been waiting so patiently and to the new listeners hearing King's X for the first time. It’s an honest labour of love that I am excited the world finally gets to hear."
