Background
editSpeaking about the album, lead singer Jean Paul Makhlouf said,
"The album contains songs about love, hate, lust, and obsession. In a weird messed up way, I think all those themes are connected and need to be used in moderation. Too much of any of them will probably end your relationship or drive you insane, but too little of any of them will most likely do the same. You can't have love without hate or you'll never appreciate what it means to be madly in love. Love without lust or small amounts of obsession gets super stale."[1]
The album was recorded in their home studio in Roseland, New Jersey.[1] "Victim of Love" was released as the lead single from the album on April 5, 2011.[5] The song peaked at number two on the iTunes Dance chart hours after its release.[1][6] A remix of the song was released on April 26, 2011 and was included as a bonus track for the album.[7] The second single, "Sexin' on the Dance Floor" was released on June 7, 2011.[8] The album reached number two on the iTunes Dance chart.[6]
