Name Origin:
Colin Frangicetto explained: "Anthony and I were at some shitty dive bar in Philadelphia looking at these notebooks we had where we'd written pairings of words related to the feelings we got when we wrote music. 'Circa Survive' was one of those pairings.

There were actually a bunch of 'C' and 'S' words. We had City Surrender and Cicada Survive on the list, too. We were obsessed with cicadas for a while for some reason. But ultimately Anthony picked Circa Survive from the list. We both liked the meaning of it .We looked at Circa Survive as meaning, essentially, a time period to focus on survival."
