According to the band's site, the album is a concept album focusing on the struggles of a man who is diagnosed with a terminal illness, specifically cancer. The concept was inspired by the deaths of the two best friends and father of guitarist Tim Roth.[1]
The first single off the album is "Time Immemorial", and the music video for the song was released on the band's MySpace page on December 10, 2008.
