In 2018,
Dallon Weekes began writing a song about a stalker attempting to obtain magical blood from a victim, metaphorically representing agencies preying on talents in
Hollywood. he began to create a juxtapositioning sound with the lyrics, additionally using breathing noises inspired by
Louis XIV's music. Weekes named the song "Bleed Magic" after finishing its lyrics, and then attached a slow instrumental ending to the song to help it flow with the EP. Totaling over $10,000 , this included Weekes' laptop and
backups, resulting in song files being lost. An image of a possible suspect was released the next morning, who was later apprehended with some of the equipment such as the backups still in his possession Subsequently, the band continued work on "Bleed Magic", finishing it soon after. Weekes' recent
sinus surgery led him to sing a line wrong, but the song had since been submitted to
Fearless Records and was unable to be fixed once noticed. ==Release==
