"Afterlife" comes from Vice Verses, the eighth album the American alternative rock band Switchfoot released in September 2011, and it followed lead single "Dark Horses" to radio at the end of February 2012. Jon and Tim Foreman wrote it together, and Neal Avron produced and mixed it and helped engineer it too, working alongside Adam Hawkins and Erich Talaba, with Nicolas Fournier assisting on the mix.
The album had been in the band's sights for a long while: Jon Foreman was already playing its title song at an acoustic benefit gig in April 2009, telling the crowd it would wait for the record after Hello Hurricane. "Afterlife" went on to earn a nomination at the 2013 GMA Dove Awards for Rock/Contemporary Song of the Year.
