Recording
[edit]Recording on the album started in 2010 on location in Belfast and included the track someone which was to be the first of two singles released prior to the album and Save Me which was mixed by American producer Beau Hill[4] who worked previously with Alice Cooper, Kix and Winger.[5] The sessions later moved to Blast Furnace studios in Derry where the band were joined by legendary English record producer Stuart Epps and the tracks 'Damn' and 'Don't ask if I'm alone' were born. These two tracks were eventually mixed at Einstein Studios in Antrim Northern Ireland. Once more the band moved on location as the struggle of putting together the tough second album continued. The live sessions continued until 2014. The album was eventually completed in March 2015 and the 10 track album, according to Rolling Stone, elevated the band's stature "from heroes to superstars".[6]
