Spotify runs background processes when app is closed

Even after I close out Spotify on my device, under Apps > Running, there are 6 Spotify services still running in the background.

 

I have Spotify's Offline mode enabled, so there are no notifications coming in, nor do not have any Spotify widgets active.  

 

If I power off/on my phone, these processes are no longer running only until I launch Spotify again. 

 

Is there a reason why Spotify needs to run processes after the app has been closed? These kind of background processes are deteriorating my battery life. 

 

Running Android 5.0 official build on Nexus 5.
