Background and recording 

Work on 

From Hell I Rise

began as early as 2020, 

with King saying in

 an interview on

 the Dean Guitars 

YouTube channel

 that August that he had

 "more than two records' 

worth of music". 

King's Slayer bandmate 

and drummer 

Paul Bostaph 

stated that same month

 he and King 

were working on a

 new project that would 

"sound like Slayer without it being Slayer 

 but not intentionally so." 

Progress on the album

 remained slow within 

the next three years.

 King said in a January 2024

 interview with 

Metal Hammer magazine 

that it had been 

"done since June" 2023, 

with production handled

 by Josh Wilbur. 

About five months

 after its completion, 

King hinted that he was going

 to release the debut album

 by his new project in 2024;

 this project was later revealed

 to be his 

solo debut album 

 Details of the album,

 including its title, 

release date and lineup,

 were announced on

 February 5, 2024, 

and its first single

 "Idle Hands"

 was premiered 

on the same day.
