Cancer Bats released their last studio album, Psychic Jailbreak, in 2022. Cancer Bats's vocalist Liam Cormier talked about the new album in an exclusive interview with New Noise Magazine on April 12, 2022, revealing how his move to Nova Scotia inspired the writing process of the album:
A 1000%. Yeah, being here and just being inspired. Also, I would say, again, because of the pandemic happened, I was just in Nova Scotia literally the whole time. So we would try and link up to jam and then there’d be a lock down, my flight would get cancelled, like the money was back on my account, and I was like, “Oh yeah, I’m not leaving.”
The singer continued:
"So instead, I’d be like, “Okay, I’m going to go work on lyrics, literally beside the ocean” because I couldn’t go to any coffee shops or anything like that, which was normally where I will write a record. I’ll get out of the house, I’ll walk to the coffee shop and I’ll work on some lyrics. But because I couldn’t sit in a coffee shop-"
He later added:
"-, I was like, I’m going to drive my pick-up truck to the coast, and I’ll listen to the track while I get up there and then I’ll literally sit at Peggy’s Cove, watch the ocean, and I write lyrics for the day there. It would just wash over me creatively. [Laughs]. Something that people don’t really talk about is that there’s tons of lakes out here."
The singer later stated:
"So there’s all of these windy lake roads you can do and crazy loops. So you can do a loop driving around the city for an hour and pass by probably 50 beautiful lakes. Yeah, I don’t want to blow it because then I’ll probably get chased out of town [Laughs], but it’s kind of a secret Nova Scotia thing that nobody talks about…these beautiful lakes everywhere."
