Recording

The album was released on July 25, 2025, amidst a tour and the band pulling out of Spotify due to the investment activities of its CEO Daniel Ek.^[1][2][3] At the time of the album's release, Ek faced significant backlash due to his extensive investment in military technologies, namely the use of AI drones in combat.^[2][3] The album was announced with the message: “New demos collection out everywhere except Spotify (fuck Spotify).”^[1]

The album was released as part of the band's bootlegger program, where they release live albums, demos, and even full length albums, for free without copyright to allow anyone to press their own records.^[1] Vol. 7 was recorded between 2014 and 2022 consisting of early demos of songs from Quarters!, Infest the Rats' Nest, and Omnium Gatherum.^[4] Vol. 8 meanwhile consisted solely of demos from the album Changes.^[5]
