The album is notable for its brevity and the fact that it only contains three songs by Phil Leonard ("The Doctor").[citation needed]

Cox said, "It came together relatively quickly. We wrote the songs over a period of a few months then learnt them really quickly and then recorded it really quickly. With this record we didn't want to over-think it. Our last couple of albums had more instrumentation on them with the keyboards but we've stripped this one back to guitar bass and drums. It's a much rawer record than the others."[1]
