Days for Days is The Loud Family's fourth full-length album. The band's leader, Scott Miller, and the bass guitar player, Kenny Kessel, are the only members of the band remaining from the previous album. Gil Ray, who had been a member of Miller's 1980s band Game Theory, rejoined Miller for this album.

Odd-numbered tracks on this album are soundscapes without names, while even-numbered tracks are named songs. While the odd-numbered tracks had no listed titles on this release, subsequent live recordings of the songs (as on From Ritual to Romance) titled these tracks by number - so track 1 was "One", track 3 "Three", etc..
