At this early stage, they had completed a significant portion of the air disc and had just begun working on the earth disc. For this later element, they set themselves to have it done in a week, since they wanted it to "have a pretty stripped down vibe and we don't want to have time to over-think it." It was recorded inside a room with wooden floorboards. The earth disc was completed by early November, as work on the water disc began. Towards the end of the month, they shifted to jamming on material for the fire disc, while working on material for the water disc alongside this.
