The album was recorded at different stages in studios in different countries. Guitars and bass were recorded by Jim Pinder at Treehouse Studios in Derbyshire in the United Kingdom; the drums were performed, recorded and engineered by Anup Sastry; and Chris Barretto recorded his vocals with Cristian Machado at Soundwars Studios in New Jersey in the United States. Then mixing and mastering was completed by Joel Wanasek at JTW Music in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.[3] [4]

The album has been well received by critics including Already Heard,[5] Dead Press!,[1] Distorted Sound,[6] and Metal Injection.[2]

Upon the release of the album the band commenced on a 31-date tour of the United Kingdom and mainland Europe over October and November with main support from Vola.[7] In January 2019 Monuments will be performing headline shows in New Zealand,[8] then on the Australian multi-date music festival Progfest.[9] It is the last album featuring vocalist Chris Barretto.
