Band Personnel Shift

This album saw the return of vocalist Julianna Towns (of the band Skinner Box, who first appeared on A Chaos of Desire), replacing vocalist Lucan. Julianna left the band again after a pre-release promotional tour. This was the last album to feature original male vocalist Oscar Herrera, who sang on two tracks as a favor to Sam.
