History

The band played Triple J's Like a Version[3] earlier in 2014, including an acoustic version of their single "I Am" as well as an acoustic version of the Rage Against the Machine song "Killing in the Name". The songs, especially the cover, were met with huge internet buzz.[4][5] Shortly after, Dead Letter Circus announced they would be performing a number of intimate acoustic shows in September. Just a week before the tour started, on 29 August, the band announced the surprise release of Stand Apart containing six re-imagined acoustic versions of songs from The Catalyst Fire.[6]

Both "Lodestar" and "I Am" were previously released as bonus tracks for The Catalyst Fire in North America.
