It was initially planned to be released on November 5, 2012 before being delayed. Produced entirely by Ethan Kath, (III) was recorded in Warsaw and mixed in London. The album addresses the theme of oppression, with the musicians using different pedals and keyboards to create a diverse "palette of sound".
