The album has allowed O'Sullivan to break free from the confines of genre, taking influence from the likes of Tears For Fears and Kate Bush from his parents' record collection through the industrial and gothic textures of DAF, The Cure, Coil and Dead Can Dance to the hardcore punk of his own personal roots. Indeed, O'Sullivan's use of contradiction within the style of the record is a very deliberate choice: "If it was too bleak, with melancholy overriding the whole thing, then I'd counteract it with a huge chorus or huge hook" O'Sullivan's chief collaborator in Mothlite is Norwegian producer Knut Jonas Sellevold (Elektrofant, King Knut). Arranger, composer and beat-maker of the highest order.

Now the album is done, O'Sullivan is ready to move onto new things. "To be honest, I'm really glad that it's over," he says. "I felt like I couldn't move until I got that out there." As well as plans for a new Mothlite record, this forward surge includes exploring "ideas and schemes" as to how 'Dark Age' will transfer to the road. "Now that the drama has played out and everyone can see what it is, I can almost do a theatrical version of the scenes within. I don't want to look as though I'm crying down the microphone night after night if we go on tour. I'd rather have a show."
