History
Songs on the compilation were recorded between 2007 and 2009. The first single "Thumper" was released on 12 February 2010. The video for "Thumper" shows the band in black-and-white and ending up looking cartoon-esque, not unlike A-Ha's "Take On Me", although the band members' faces are distorted, with wide mouths, pointed noses and sunken eyes. This type of animation is called rotoscoping. The video was directed and animated by Joseph Pierce.
"All Eyes On the Saint" was previously released as bonus track for the Japanese and American iTunes version of Common Dreads. The song itself is about the execution of Saint Alban.[1]
