[edit] Overview

In many ways, the album resembles the band's previous work since it does not deviate from their style of lengthy crescendos and soaring melodies. However, there is more maturity and diversity from track to track. A few songs are dominated by heavy distortion and fierce drumming while other melodies are soft and piano-driven.

The album artwork is again by Esteban Rey.

The album took two years to record.^{[citation needed]} The title "All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone" is a description of solitude. ^[1]

All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone debuted on the Billboard 200 at number 76, selling 11,000 copies in its first week on the chart.^[2]

The double vinyl version of this album came in two versions, a standard edition on black vinyl and a limited edition version (limited to 2000 copies) on white and green marble vinyl. This latter was sold exclusively on the Temporary Residence Limited web store and with the band on tour.
