On September 18, the day that recording for the album was completed, the album's release was changed from mid-September to November 18. In August and September, the band embarked on a Canadian tour with Simple Plan and Faber Drive. On June 30, 2008, the band announced that their next album would be released in three months' time. In June, the band performed on the 2008 edition of Warped Tour. In April 2008, the band appeared at the Bamboozle Left festival. They later released the demo version of the track "Mona Lisa (When the World Come Down)" and "Sierra's Song" as free downloads, the latter of which never featured on the album and appears on the soundtrack to the American television show 90210. The album was later named When the World Comes Down as Ritter saw the title track as "a perfect, simple work of art".ĭuring production of the album, The All-American Rejects broadcast live to fans online to provide a direct insight into the "record-making" process. While "I Wanna" was written over a six-month period, with Ritter making constant refinements, the following songs " Gives You Hell" and "Another Heart Calls" were all written during a road trip to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, with "Fallin' Apart" and "Mona Lisa" getting scored in Rabun County, Georgia, the latter of which was recorded live in one take. The first songs to be written that made it onto the album were " I Wanna", "Back to Me", and "Breakin'". It's everything I needed it to be for me." I think I was most questioning life when I was getting off the road with Move Along and this record was therapy for me. If I had graduated college, this would be that moment – now. people say when you graduate college you figure out who you are. I was twenty-three when I started writing this record. In an interview with She Knows Entertainment, Ritter commented "I think When the World Comes Down has been a journey.

This was also the first time lyricists Nick Wheeler and Tyson Ritter tried new methods of writing by "escaping" to various regional areas in North America to conceive new lyrics so that the songs could sound "honest". But due to further touring and promotion for their second album Move Along, the band did not enter the studio until nearly a year later. The All-American Rejects began writing material for their third studio album in late December 2006 after wrapping up their Tournado tour, and continued through into the new year.
