===Background===

Following extensive touring worldwide in support of their critically acclaimed second studio album, ''Bad Religion Society'' (2011), the band became worn out from touring and writing music therefor leading to the announcement of their indefinite hiatus in February 2012. Despite the band's statement, many referred to the band's hiatus as a break up. Throughout the following two years, members Jacob Walsh and Jon Burner attended The Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, California. Rylan Stewart pursued studying in video, photo, and graphic design at Bemidji State University in Bemidji, Minnesota, however dropped out in 2014 due to anxiety and depression. Jordan Walsh became a songwriter and producer for other artists such as Demi Lovato, Karmin, and Tove Lo form 2012 to 2014. In February of 2015, rumors began circulating that the band would enter the studio during the summer of 2015 to record a third studio album, however the band's former manager Kyle Ventura denied those rumors through his official Tumblr account. In September 2015, more rumors began circulating that Stewart and Burner were in a studio in Los Angeles after a mini-documentary was published to YouTube on Conway Recording Studios. In October 2015, Stewart announced that he would "more than love it if Bad Religion Society became a thing again." 

On November 24, 2015, the band relaunched their official website and Tumblr and revealed that they would be releasing their single "Life of the Party" on November 27, 2015 and revealing details of a new album. On November 27, the band released the single accompanied with its music video. It was also revealed that Andrew Goehring, founding member and percussionist, did not return with the band, therefor leading to Jordan Walsh's decision to pursue percussion duties apart from being on guitar.
