The album was launched on 25 October 2013 at the Flyer Saucer Club in Melbourne.

In an interview with between Weekend Notes and band member Peter Maslen, he described the album as "... a basic CD. It's got the hits and two new songs we recorded last year, which surprised us, but we did do two songs last year. It wasn't planned."
