[1] After the band released Man vs Monster, the album appeared on music website, 'Shadowglobe'.

Atlantic Records had heard the album through the site and invited them to New York to do a showcase for them.

In March 2012, the band announced they had departed from Atlantic Records due to the label's failure to release their album for over 2 years.

The band intended to release the album independently for free as a gift to their fans who had continued to support them.
