Northbound

Northbound is the third album by American-South African supergroup and Infection side project World Of Fire.

Contrary to popular belief, Yolandi Visser had no input in the writing or recording of this album.

Writing
Spongebob was sitting alone in his house and had a spark of creativity. He invited his bandmates to his house and they all sat around a table, pulling things out of a hat and writing about them. Many of the things in the hat were polar opposites from each other, and often, members had to write a song about those polar opposites, causing Yolandi to pull out of the recording and writing process.

Recording
The band played on beat up instruments, mainly to get the muddy guitar sound that they wanted, along with toying around with distortion pedals and other things. Many of the songs were recorded over days and weeks, with redraft after redraft. Many of the 24 songs on the album came out completely different than they were the first time around.

Many band members swapped around in terms of instruments so they could understand their strengths on the album, so every song sounded almost completely different from the next.
