=== 2011–present ===
In an interview with NOLA.com in November 2013, Roy Mitchell-Cárdenas said, "We have a lot of songs, and we're trying to whittle down what those main songs are going to be that seem to have a common thread between them all to make for this album." He goes on to explain that the production of ''Odd Soul'' was a unique process since Todd Gummerman was not yet a part of the band and that all guitar parts were written by all members of the band, who are all multi-instrumentalists. It is worth noting that the band has not yet released material written by Todd Gummerman, and the band has not discussed any writing processes including him, although certain posts in Darren King's Vine account show Gummerman present and active during the writing process.

When asked about what kind of influences and sounds the band has in mind for the future potential album release, Mitchell-Cárdenas stated, "Anything is fair play for us, as long as we can pull it off convincingly."<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.nola.com/music/baton-rouge/index.ssf/2013/11/in_mutemaths_musical_future_an.html |title=In Mutemath's musical future, 'anything is fair play' |access-date=June 1, 2017}}</ref> Paul Meany also responded to a fan question via Twitter in January 2014 asking about the amount of music the band had written saying, "I can tell [you] we've written more songs for this record than for the past 3 combined."<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://twitter.com/mutemath/status/429395468180029441/ |title=MUTEMATH on Twitter |access-date=May 24, 2015}}</ref>{{Primary source inline|date=April 2020}}
