The album is split into two "sides". The first filled with upbeat, sunny pop rock produced by their long-time collaborator Eric Valentine, who also produced Good Charlotte's The Young and the Hopeless and The Chronicles of Life and Death. Side two is produced by Joe Chiccarelli, is inspired by "70s-era FM pop".[2]
