The album was mixed at Cauldron Studios in Dublin and mastered by Mark Chalecki in Los Angeles.
Until the Hunter is the band's first studio album since Through the Devil Softly (2009). In the years that followed, both Sandoval and Ó Cíosóig resumed touring with their original bands – Mazzy Star and My Bloody Valentine, respectively – with those two bands each releasing their first new studio albums in approximately two decades in 2013, Seasons of Your Day and m b v. Work began on Until the Hunter in 2014, with Sandoval and Ó Cíosóig composing new material in Berkeley, California. They later reconvened in Dublin, Ireland to hold recording sessions, where they were joined by Irish band Dirt Blue Gene. This band – which consists of Charles Cullen, Dave Brennan, Al Browne, Mick Whelan and Alan Montgomery – also contributed to Through the Devil Softly, and performed as The Warm Inventions' backing band for its world tour until 2010.
