The album was co-produced and co-mixed by Life of Agony and Phil Nicolo of the Butcher Brothers at Studio 4 Recording in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania.

Shortly after the initial release of the album, Roadrunner Records released a digipak reissue of the album in Europe, which included the first two bonus tracks from the North American limited edition along with "Tangerine (Re-Zep)", a Led Zeppelin cover song, which featured, fellow NYC band, Anthrax's Charile Benante on 6-string acoustic guitar and 12-string acoustic guitar.

Life Of Agony recruited former Ugly Kid Joe singer Whitfield Crane to step in to fulfill touring obligations in support of "Soul Searching Sun".

Life Of Agony's original lineup would reunite for the first time in 2003 to perform two sold out shows at NYC's Irving Plaza.
