Background

The group announced they were in the process of recording their next album on January 5, 2015.[1] Everybody Is Going to Heaven was recorded at Studio 4 Recording in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, with producer Will Yip. He was assisted by engineer Colin Gorman; Yip and Vince Ratti mixed the recordings. Ryan Smith mastered the album at Sterling Sound in New York City.[2]

Discussing the writing process, guitarist Nick Hamm said the group was "doing whatever we feel like" and that the songs were "twice as big as [the tracks on] Youth. It's Citizen, but it's turned up to 11".[3] Everybody Is Going to Heaven has been described as alternative rock,[4] emo,[5] and shoegazing.[6][5]

On April 26, 2015, Everybody Is Going to Heaven was announced for release in June, revealing its cover art.

Directed by Moore, it features two people stabbing themselves with knives. According to Noisey, proceeding this is a "a strange reaction that plays out for the rest of the duration. One could expound that it's a visual representation of the song's lyrics seen real".[9]
