==Release==

''[[An Omen EP]]'', released November 2012, served as a precursor to the album, with four of its six tracks featuring on ''Welcome Oblivion'', three of which had a music video.

The album was announced alongside the video release for "The Loop Closes," one of four tracks to be featured on both this album and ''An Omen EP''. The first single to be released from the album (that was not already on ''An Omen EP'') was "How Long?" on January 31st, accompanied by its music video and an announcement of the tracklisting and the vinyl's album art.

On February 19th, HTDA made "And The Sky Began To Scream" available for free via text service Maebe, the first song to be released on the service. The full CD/Digital version of the album was made available to stream in its entirety for free via Pitchfork on February 20th, and on the same day the band released pre-orders through their own website, and some new t-shirt designs linked to the album's artwork.

[[wiki:Kevin Martin (British musician)|The Bug]] was originally to appear on the album, providing a musical hook for one of the tracks (which one is unknown). However, as [[Mariqueen Maandig]] "couldn't get happy with her voice on it"[''sic''], the hook was ultimately scrapped. The Bug has stated he'll use it in his own music in the future.[https://twitter.com/thebugzoo/status/303918496440537088]

Like the band's first EP, the CD and vinyl versions of the album have different artwork. Due to a printing issue, the vinyl edition of the album was delayed until the 19th of March.
