"We were all looking to go with something more raw and aggressive than the previous releases." Chris Spencer said earlier this year, comparing Gone Dark to his band's 2020 self-titled album and 2021's EP01. "There was a real desire to capture more of what the live performances had been like. With this one, we had plenty of time to develop a full, cohesive album joining songs together with interstitial pieces more like a live performance would be. With Gone Dark we have arrived at a place where we fully understand who we are as a band, so it's a bit more focused and relentless."
