Background and recording
Iceage released their fifth studio album, Seek Shelter, in 2021. In the period between Iceage albums, the band's vocalist Elias Rønnenfelt released the solo albums Heavy Glory in 2024 and Speak Daggers in 2025. The first songs for For Love of Grace & the Hereafter began after the making of Heavy Glory, which Rønnenfelt said had given him an outlet for stripped-back songwriting before returning to more forceful material with Iceage.
For Love of Grace & the Hereafter was recorded in November 2025 at Silence Studio in rural Sweden, the same studio where the band recorded Plowing Into the Field of Love.
