Background
On 20 March 2020, the band announced that they were in a home studio, writing and recording material for their eighth record, which was expected to be an EP, with part of it being co-produced by video game composer Mick Gordon. After playing the video game Doom Eternal and being inspired by the games' soundtrack, lead vocalist Oliver Sykes contacted the games' composer, Mick Gordon to help produce the song, "Parasite Eve" and the release as a whole. In August 2020, the band's keyboardist Jordan Fish teased that the band was planning on releasing a series of releases. Speaking about the releases, keyboardist Fish stated:
"When we get into the other EPs, it'll give us a chance to maybe get some other people on who are a bit more left-field or a bit more out of the box for our band."
The band's lead vocalist Sykes also stated that they would be releasing four EPs under the "Post Human" name, stating:
"They'll each be totally different with their own sound and mood," he said. "That's one thing we've never really done. There's often been an over-arching theme on our records, but the music has always felt like a collage. That's cool and I like it, but sometimes you want a soundtrack for a certain occasion and emotion."
