[edit] History of the album

Songs such as Kalifornia and Shake! Shake! have been played as early as 2005. More recently, songs such as Girls & Boys, Alright, Obsession, Turnaround and I Won't Let You Down have been played at gigs and festivals throughout 2007 and early 2008.

The album was delayed in recording after Billy Lunn was diagnosed with nodules in his vocal cords which almost resulted in the frontman losing his voice. This led to the naming of the album 'All Or Nothing'. The effort was recorded in 2 periods at Conway Studios, LA throughout 2007 by Butch Vig who has produced albums for Nirvana (Nevermind) and The Smashing Pumpkins (Siamese Dream).
