Released on 22 March 2010, the single follows its two predecessors from Humbug, "Crying Lightning" and "Cornerstone", with the 10" vinyl being sold exclusively at Oxfam charity stores.

The 10" version of the single features three new B-sides, with the 7" bringing one new B-side. The song "Joining the Dots" was revealed during Alex Turner's visit to Little Noise Sessions.
