Despise You were offered by Relapse Records and Agoraphobic Nosebleed to do a split, so they took 6 months to write material and record.[7] The Despise You side was recorded at 818 Studios with the help of Paul Fig, and it was mixed at the studio Black Korea. The Agoraphobic Nosebleed side was recorded at Visceral Sound, with vocals being tracked at Zing Recording at Westfield, Massachusetts. The cover art, depicting a drive-by aftermath in East Los Angeles,[7] was taken by photographer Joseph Rodriguez. The song "3/26/00" was written about Chris Elder's daughter.[8]
