After the release of their fourth and new album, Day of the Dead, J-Dog, Charlie Scene, and Johnny 3 Tears spoke about their inspiration and stories on how they began work for the new album. In an interview J-Dog shared the story behind their new track "Usual Suspects" on how they began to drink in the recording studio. They eventually go down to a 7-Eleven near the studio to buy big gulp cups of ice filled with orange juice and champagne. By this point they were completely intoxicated as they walked down Sunset Blvd practically drinking mimosas. The band started writing lyrics about the Sunset Strip when suddenly Johnny 3 Tears started talking weird about losing his mind, the band quickly began writing lyrics on it. At the end, the band felt that the song came out feel like an old school Hollywood Undead song. The inspiration for the song title came from the famous phrase line, "Round up the usual suspects", from the classic 1942 filmCasablanca. J-Dog also addressed critics saying that they are still the same band since they started back in 2005 and in no way have changed.
