Produced by the legendary Ross Robinson, Revel says of making the LP: “We sat behind our instruments, shared our deepest darkest secrets and then continued to beat our instruments with each strum and stroke packed with unfiltered emotion. Ross Robinson transformed us into musical weapons that will blow your head off when you play our record.”

“Nothing brings me more satisfaction as a producer than sharing that undeniable life force of untainted expression,” Ross reveals. “XCOMM, being the youngest band I’ve ever worked with, I had to nickname the studio sessions as ‘daycare’. It was so fun and alive throughout the whole process. Made me realise on another level how important the pulse of youth truly is.”
