In August 2009, the band announced plans for a 6th Anniversary show at The Bull & Gate in London on 29 September 2009. The band continued to write for their third album, penning 11 new songs. They started demoing and pre-production once bass player Naoto Hori had returned from Japan, after having an operation on his back following an injury from doing removal work. Working titles for new songs include "Tiny Pieces", "Eden", "Love is a Duel", "Adieu", "Coat in Bruise", "200 Scratches", "It's a mess, if it ain't it'll do till a mess gets here", "Little Perisher", and "Press The Six".
