Last spring, singer Eric "A.K." Knutson told The Metal Voice that FLOTSAM AND JETSAM was already working on material for the follow-up to "The End Of Chaos". Asked about a possible musical direction for the next FLOTSAM AND JETSAM disc, Gilbert said: "'The End Of Chaos' kind of bled over into the power metal thing. I don't know how we did that, being a speed metal band [or] a thrash band, classified as that. But where we're going now, I think it's gonna get much heavier, actually. I don't know how that's gonna happen, but the new stuff that Steve [Conley, guitar] and I are writing, and what [Eric is] putting on it, it's gonna be fucking heavy as shit."
