The album is the band's first with lead guitarist Or Yaakov and bassist Jonathan Shkedi, and the first album recorded by the band as a four-piece. The album is also the first the band recorded outside of Israel, opting to record it at Nada Recording Studio in New Windsor, New York in the US, with producer John Naclerio, where previously such bands as Polar Bear Club and The Audition have recorded.
