Background
In late 2015, the band announced plans for the Rave-Sound-of-the-Month and that they would be recording and releasing twelve new songs online for each month of the year in 2016. The collection of songs was dubbed the "Anti-Album". "Every month throughout 2016 we'll be dropping a freshly recorded track. Taking you on a ride, potentially schizophrenic & disjointed, potentially cohesive and related" the band said.
