After the release of the album Ashes to Ashes, the group toured Europe and Australia from 2014 to 2015. On September 21, 2015, solo guitarist Jason Richardson left the band to concentrate on his solo album. Richardson was replaced by touring guitarist Stephen Rutishauser. On December 12, the group released the single “Skin Deep”, which was quite positively received by fans, but there was much criticism that without Richardson the group ceased to have melody. On May 4, 2016, the second single “Clickbait” was released, along with the cover and track list of the new Self Inflicted album, and it was announced that it would be released on July 1 . It is also the band's first album released on Rise Records.
