Following a three-year “nap”, Sparta played their first show since 2008 in November 2011 in their hometown of El Paso, Texas. They performed on November 17 and 18 at Tricky Falls, the newly renovated venue co-owned by frontman Jim Ward. The band headed into the studio that fall to begin work on their fourth LP, the follow-up to 2006’s Threes . A short tour of the southwestern US followed in May 2012.
