History

Prior to the announcement of the album, many songs had been played on the tour prior. Songs like "Goodbye, Oh Goodbye", "Cody's Theme", "Golden Eagle", "Small Red Boy", "When I'm A Dead Boy", and "No More Shame, No More Fear, No More Dread" have been played live prior to the album announcement.

The Bible 2 was announced on July 7, 2016. It was accompanied by the release of the song and music video for "Goodbye, Oh Goodbye", as well as an updated website with pre-order bundles. Said pre-order bundles included a safe designed to look like a book, a t-shirt, a skateboard deck with the lyrics of "When I'm A Dead Boy" printed on, as well as colored vinyl options for pre-ordering.

On August 1, the music video for "Junkie Church" was released. From August 4th through to August 12, the band released one song per day via the band's Bandcamp page in the track list order. By August 12, the entire album was available to listen to for free on Bandcamp.
