The album is a direct sequel to their previous album, ''Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness''. The album comprise part four of band's ''Amory Wars'' narrative. It is the only album to feature Taylor Hawkins on drums, following the departure of Josh Eppard. The album is often marketed by the shortened title ''No World for Tomorrow''.

A July 2007 MTV article described the album as more experimental in comparison to the band's previous efforts. Sanchez detailed that for some tracks he had experimented with unfamiliar instrumentation including organs and pianos, creating a sound he described as "Ray Charles on Quaaludes." Some parts initially written on piano were later converted into intricate guitar segments.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Coheed And Cambria Saga Somes To An End – News Story )〕 In late July 2007 "The Running Free" was announced as the album's first single, and it was released to radio on August 20.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=AbsolutePunk.net )〕 The song was streamed on the band's MySpace profile and was made available through digital distribution on August 14.
