On August 3rd, 2016, Disciple announced via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter that they would be producing a new album without a record label, instead they would use crowd funding via Kickstarter. Disciple produced their last album “Attack” in 2014 with Kickstarter. In the bio of the campaign Disciple said this:
When we were making our album ‘Attack’, I didn’t know what to expect. I was nervous. Nervous to make an album by ourselves, and nervous to ask our fans to support it. And then our fan support exceeded far and above what we had asked, and I was reminded that we are not alone. Everyone wants to be a part of something that is bigger than them. And that’s exactly what the body of Christ is. In the body of Christ every part is important, and every part is powerful. Music is one of those powerful forces that God uses to change the world, one life at a time. When we started Disciple we wanted to play music that would impact people’s lives, and that mission has never been stronger than it is today. And while the world goes their way, we are the rebels who will walk the other way. We are the rebels who will change the world. We’re asking you to join us, to stand with us as we combine the power of music with the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ, to change this world, one life at a time. Long Live the Rebels. – Kevin Young, Joey West, Andrew Stanton, Josiah Prince
