Background
On April 23, 2019, the band announced via social media that they were working on their seventh studio album. According to lead singer Deryck Whibley, the album will feature lyrics regarding social and political turmoil over the US and Canada. Whibley stated “The last thing I wanted to do was write a social or political protest record, and Order in Decline is not that. It's also very hard not to have feelings about everything that's going on in the world.” The band released a press statement calling the album their "heaviest and most aggressive" to date.
Whibley produced, engineered, and mixed the album himself. During the three years touring for 13 Voices (2016), the band came up with several song ideas. After finishing the tour; the music was finished within three weeks, with lyrics finished shortly afterwards.
