Velocette Records in 2003. For the album, the band toned down the happy melodic horn tones of their last album, "The Coast Is Never Clear", in favor of a darker approach. Given that the band announced their break up before the album's release, the sound seems to be intentionally bittersweet.Before its release in September, the album appeared on the internet on
July 4 , 2003, due to an advance copy being leaked. To counteract this, the band, along with Velocette andInsound , offered a limited edition EP burned ontoCD-R , which included demos and alternate versions of songs from "Yoko". This EP was limited to 200 copies and was called "Rarities, Demos & Besides".Also released after the initial release of "Yoko" was a new version only sold on the "Yoko" tour and at independent record stores called "Demo". It was an unmastered, unmixed copy of "Yoko" as recorded in the homes of band members
Miles Kurosky andBill Swan . The album was produced in limited numbers by Velocette.Track listing
