Eliot Sumner began playing music at a young age and writing songs at the age of 15. Some of their earlier demos include I Blame Coco Look The Other Way Darkstar Never Be Voice in My Head Avion and No Smile (A song which would later appear on their album The Constant) many of which were imbued with a heavy reggae influence and elements of pop punk. The song I Blame Coco which was co-written with Mr Hudson was released independently as a 7 single in 2007.
At the age of 17 Sumner signed a multi-record deal with Island Records. Sumner spent six months writing and recording their debut album The Constant in Sweden with one of their two producers Klas Åhlund. According to their manager Christian Wåhlberg Åhlund had been keen to work with Sumner because he saw the punk rocker in them. The electropop sound of their debut album was influenced by Island president Darcus Beese with Wåhlberg saying that if Eliot had signed to a different label then the music created with Åhlund would have sounded different. I Blame Coco's debut single for Island Caesar featuring Robyn was released in February 2010. Sumner released their follow-up single entitled Self Machine on 12 July 2010.
