 Recording
The New Romantic Devils went into the studio in late 2020 unable to really perform live. They had been writing music on and off for most of 2020 due to everyone being locked down with the pandemic. Mike McCoy had quit the band and they had not found a replacement. So the band a four piece of Rachel, Peyton, Keith, and Archie wrote and recorded the album. Keith, Archie, and Rachel were the primary writers however Peyton contributed more than she had in the past. Also, Freddy helped with instruments on most of the tracks of the album. Peyton and Rachel took the lead and were at the fore front of this project right up to the name as well as musical direction, Archie and Keith were not as happy with the direction at the time of recording process. This was first album that Archie had a lead vocal on a track. The album was a huge success locally for them in the Fort Worth/ Dallas area and helped them get ready for 2021.  The album was released in the spring of 2021.
