Released on October 7, 2014, it is the band's first album recorded as a four-piece since the departure of founding guitarist-lyricist Steve Klein in late 2013.
Produced alongside frequent collaborator Paul Miner and recorded between June and July 2014, the album was preceded by singles "Selfless" and "Ready & Willing."
To promote the release of the album, the band headlined the fifth annual Glamour Kills tour starting on August 10, with dates across South Korea, Canada, the United States, and Europe.
[5][6][7] Following a report published in Billboard magazine announcing the band would be entering a "lengthy hiatus",[8][9] Chad Gilbert spoke out and strongly denied these rumors before confirming they would be recording their first live album the following year.
[15][16] The statement explained that Klein was no longer in the band due to "personal differences" and that they would begin searching for a replacement soon, having made plans to record albums without him.
[20] Drummer Cyrus Bolooki recounted the writing process of the album in an interview with Blunt magazine: "This time around was cool as there was a lot of collaboration going on, there were no roadblocks.
The three of us in California [bass player Ian Grushka resides in Florida] would go to Chad’s and sit around the dining room table while Jordan recorded demos on this crappy microphone.
[28] In late August, the group performed at Fashion Meets Music Festival,[18] followed by an appearance at Riot Fest.
[37] On July 22, a music video was released for a new version of "Vicious Love", which featured Hayley Williams of Paramore.
[39] On the same day, a music video was released for the new version of "Ready & Willing", which included cameos from Mark Hoppus of Blink-182, Ryan Key of Yellowcard, and Chris Carrabba of Dashboard Confessional, among others.
commented, "Resurrection is a powerhouse of a record, the brave onward steps of New Found Glory proving that hope--like pop-punk--is not dead".
