Alkaline Trio's lead vocalist, Matt Skiba, revealed the concept behind the band's upcoming album in a general press release on October 17, 2023, stating:
“My mom worked for years as an emergency room nurse. She and her co-workers referred to exceptionally busy nights as ‘blood, hair, and eyeballs’. Well, we’ve been busy making an exceptional record we refer to as ‘Blood, Hair, and Eyeballs’, too."
The singer then elaborated on the recording process, stating:
"We approached this new record in completely new ways. We built the songs together, from the ground up, in the same room which hasn’t happened since the band started. Usually, we start with an idea somebody’s already written."
The singer continued:
"This time, we had the unique opportunity to build the songs onto drums recorded at Studio 606 onto two-inch tape using one of the most beautiful-sounding and legendary consoles in rock. It has almost everything to do with how our new record sounds."
Alkaline Trio is best known for their fifth studio album, Crimson, which was released on May 24, 2005. The silver-certified album peaked at number 25 on the Billboard 200 album chart.
