Production

The band wrote and did the initial recordings of the songs at their Central Coast home studio in New South Wales, Australia. This time around, all three brothers had an input on the songwriting with everyone working on their songs individually before bringing them together for the final polish. The band wrote a lot of songs with Dann writing over one hundred songs.

After two months, the band flew to Easton, Maryland, USA where they met up with engineer John Alagía who the band worked with on "Dreams". The band chose to work with John Alagía because they knew he'd let them get on with the job. "To be honest, we did nearly all of it without him," says Jon. "We basically worked with him because we had to - the record company wouldn't allow us to do it all ourselves." cite news| last=Barry | first=Rebecca | url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/6/story.cfm?c_id=6&objectid=10388791 | publisher=NZ Herald| title=Evermore in the running| date=2006-07-02 | accessdate=2006-07-08]

After some preproduction work, the band headed to Massachusetts, USA where in keeping true to their rural roots recorded at Longview Farm, the oldest recording studio still operating in the US and where artists such as Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones and Aerosmith have recorded. The album was also recorded at The Village Recording Studios in Los Angeles and was mixed by Grammy Award winning engineer Tom Lord-Alge in Miami. cite news| url=http://www.amplifier.co.nz/video/21881/running.html?full=1 | publisher=Amplifier.co.nz| title=Production information| accessdate=2006-07-09]
