Recording

The EP was recorded in 2004 in Los Angeles at Record Plant and Dirty Little Studios.[4]

Release

Lemona was first released on compact disc by the independent label Leftwing Recordings in Los Angeles in June 2004, which sold so well that the label "couldn't press enough copies" to keep up with the demand.[3] The EP was subsequently given a wider release in the United Kingdom by the London-based Wichita Recordings on January 25, 2005.[3]

In June 2021, the band independently issued Lemona alongside their second EP, Swan Song, as a joint release on vinyl for the first time.[5]
