In a new interview with Primordial Radio, KITTIE guitarist/vocalist Morgan Lander spoke about the band's decision to put KITTIE on hiatus in 2013 after almost two decades in the industry, six studio albums and several lineup changes. She said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "The industry was sort of in a weird flux position when we were doing those last tours and whatnot. And it was sort of like the transition period between like people buying CDs and people streaming music. And there certainly are a lot of elements that went into it, but I think a lot of it was just personal."

During an appearance on the July 8-9 episode of "Whiplash", the KLOS radio show hosted by Full Metal Jackie, P.O.D. guitarist Marcos Curiel was asked about the band's musical diversity and the ability to take P.O.D.'s songwriting in so many different directions while still continuing to evolve. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "Well, there's so many reasons to love this band and then there's so many reasons for people not to love this band and jump the gun, jump to conclusion of what they think we are or who we are. And that's a blessing and a curse because we're just a band that started in the garage. We're like the true American dream. I always like to make the comparison to Apple or IBM. When you look at their stories, they started in the garage, creating their product. We did the exact same thing, and we did it in San Diego, South San Diego. And we never really had these, we didn't have this premeditated type of thing that we were gonna set out to do. We were always just kids trying to get the next gig. 'Hey, if we play and practice, we can play that so-and-so's kegger on Saturday' or 'we can get to the one club and play the local all-ages club,' and then it just started to evolve and kind of just grow."
