As with all of the band's previous releases up until that point, art direction was handled by Travis Smith.[4]

The EP was initially only made available for sale at concerts on the band's European tour in May 2011. It was release to the general public in Europe on 20 June 2011 by GlassVille Records, and in North America on 28 June 2011 by The Laser's Edge.[5][6][7]
