Writing and composition

About how the album will be heavy and angry, vocalist Jack Bergin said:

"From fine-tuning and tweaking all the synths and accompaniment to the grittiness and aggression of the vocals, we really wanted the pure anger that went into making these recordings to translate out the other side – something I feel we haven’t quite grasped on previous records."[8]

Bergin also revealed that the themes present on the album are: "Pure hatred, self-loathing and nihilism."[9]

"Hole in Me" was described as sounding "like The Prodigy blended with metalcore with plenty of ambient synth and distorted screams."[8]
