In an interview in 2004, lead singer Conor Deasy described the band's upcoming second album:

I think [the new album's] great. I'm really excited about it. It's different from the first record. It's a step on, I think. A lot of bands, in the last few years, have released good first albums and haven't really stepped up to the challenge on the second one. [Our new album] doesn't really sound like a record people are making quite now. It's tougher, but it's also quite beautiful as well. It's a nice kind of mixture. It's a little more ambiguous as well.
