The band released a concept album, titled "Lotus Island", on January 21, 2013. It also served as an alternate soundtrack to the 1973 film "The Holy Mountain" by Alejandro Jodorowsky. The album consists of seven instrumental tracks, four full band completed songs with vocals, and a remastered and remixed version of "It Rapes All in Its Path". The album has a running time of 40 minutes and was mixed entirely by Borland, his first attempt at mixing a full album. According to Wes Borland, the album is more of a "thing". Borland titles "Lotus Island" not being an album or an EP, it's more like an "interim piece of something". In 2016, Borland said that he would never record another Black Light Burns album. However, in October 2017 he stated that after his current commitments with Big Dumb Face, Queen Kwong and his next solo album, he will aim to release a new Black Light Burns album in June 2018, which he stated is "because [he said [he'd] never do that again".
