On February 14, 2007, Dredg issued an update indicating production had begun on their next album and released several new song titles as part of the update. Gavin Hayes posted a Myspace blog on July 8, 2007, with new information that the band had 12-15 songs that might or might not make the final cut. Of the songs previously written, only a few were being worked on from prior updates. Hayes stated that on December 21, 2007, the writing process for their new album was almost done, and they planned to enter the studio in early 2008 to start recording. This would be followed by extensive touring in the spring. The songs that were played at live shows during the writing process but were not released on the album include: “Wondrous Miracle”, “It’s Not Worth It”, “Push Away”, “Holding a Remedy Potion”, “Hurricane Felix”, “Pieces of Gold”, “Fleeing to Mexico”, “2001”, “MacGuffin” and “Fucking Smile Pt. 2”.
