Circa Survive is a rock band consisting of former Saosin vocalist Anthony Green and members of the now-defunct This Day Forward. Green cites Paul Simon, dredg, and Björk among the artists who have influenced the vocal stylings and songwriting in Circa Survive[citation needed], which is relatively more aggressive than Saosin.

After going back to his hometown of Philadelphia for a dental appointment, Anthony Green went to the airport to return to California and Saosin. However, while on a layover in Phoenix, he suddenly had an epiphany - that despite the fact that Saosin was close to breaking out, he knew he would be miserable if he returned. To him, Saosin was "a girl that you had great sex with, yet had little in common with."[citation needed] He returned to Colin Frangicetto, a friend who he had "jammed" with during his stay, and they decided to begin recording and recruiting. Thus, Circa Survive was born.
