Hours was produced, recorded and mixed by Terry Date, with co-production by the band.

Production took place in Seattle, Washington, with some of the album being recorded in Pearl Jam’s Studio Litho facilities.

Several unorthodox approaches were taken during vocal tracking, including Date recording Davies-Kreye singing on a public street ("History") and in a moving vehicle ("Drive").

[6] The album produced four singles: "Streetcar", "Monsters", "History" and "Roses for the Dead", all of which charted within the UK top 50.
