Six of the twelve tracks from Mend Your Misery were re-released on Love is Gone; all of them, including their song "My Heart, Your Hands", being re-recorded or remixed for this album.
Dommin entered the studio in 2009 to begin working on Love Is Gone, with Lucas Banker and Logan Mader producing.
[1] A special edition of Love is Gone was also released and contains three additional tracks not included on the original album.
"(I Just) Died In Your Arms" features a collaboration with Tomo Miličević from Thirty Seconds to Mars, who contributed lead guitars to the track.
[8] Max Barrett from Blistering wrote that "the heart and soul of Love Is Gone clearly stems from the lyrics of frontman Kristofer Dommin, who gives an inspiring performance where his heartache and torment is laid on a platter for the listener".
