After teasing fans for a full week about an exciting announcement via going live on social media, The Letter Black shared exciting and positive news on 03/06/2020. In a live video on both Facebook and Instagram, lead singer Sarah Anthony, along with bandmates Mark Anthony and Daniel Hegerle, told fans that "we have officially retired!" After a moment of dramatic pause, they continued with "the big news is that we are writing record number four, we are writing and recording, we are signing to a record label, and we are back!"

The Letter Black went quiet after their last album Pain to focus on family. Pain had a more raw, gritty, and hardcore sound than anything they had done before, and they shared that it was closer to their desired sound than they had been able to produce with previous records. This announcement comes 10 years after their debut album, Hanging on By a Thread released in 2010, with Tooth and Nail Records.
