Album information

The album was originally planned as a 2-disc collection. The album was also originally planned to be released on November 27.^[2] After a tour with The Rentals, however, Aaron Marsh's voice was extremely fatigued and irritated by acid reflux. Several of the songs planned to be on the record needed vocals, so the band decided to leave them off. The band also did not want the album to be too steeply priced. The band stated, "We didn't want this album to be expensive for anyone to buy, especially since many of these tracks are out there already. Since double disc sets are traditionally more expensive, we couldn't guarantee that retailers would keep the price reasonable." They decided to release a second volume or companion EP sometime in the near future.^[3]

Trivia

The song Thanks to You was originally written by Bryan Laurenson for his side-project, Modern Day Miracle.
