Background.
In March 2015, Jedi Mind Tricks founders Vinnie Paz and Stoupe the Enemy of Mankind announced they had reunited to make their first album together since 2008's "A History of Violence". Former member Jus Allah, who rejoined the group in 2006 but then left again in 2013, did not appear on the album, making it the first Jedi Mind Tricks album in which he did not appear since 2006's "Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell". On May 6, 2015, the duo released a single and music video for "Deathless Light", along with a release date and cover art. Vinnie Paz's lyrics on the album were partly inspired by the written works of British author Clive Barker. The album cover was designed by Andrew Haines, and was intended to be unlike other hip hop albums.
