The album was recorded in Los Angeles at the close of a tour of Europe and the United States. It was the first to feature new keyboardist John Hoey (ex-X-Men, Thought Criminals and New Christs) following the departure of long-time member Frank Brunetti and bassist Steve Clark (ex-Glass), who replaced Mark Lock.[2]
