The band also announced a This Is the Warning album launch tour which will play shows in most major capital cities in Australia.

[3] Tasmanian graphic artist Cameron Gray has collaborated with the band and his artwork is featured on the album's cover and booklet.

The band have stated that the album is "a first person account of awakening to the construct that has been put in place in an attempt to control and mold us.

"[5] Benzie went on to reveal the real-world events that inspired the lyrics for the album; "war over oil fields and stuff like that.

Gray was discovered by Benzie who was looking for an artist that captured the visual feel of the band; "I really liked him when I found him online.

"[14] Allmusic described the album as "Delay-based guitar textures are interlaced with subtle synth undercurrents, creating complex patterns out of a set of simple rhythms without cutting down on melody, and the whole thing is executed with a surgical precision that recalls the incarnation of Krautrock promoted by Maserati -- while the sheer intensity brings to mind God Is an Astronaut more than My Chemical Romance.

"[13] The track listing for the album was revealed on the Project Dead Letter website on Day #27 leading up to the launch.
