The album was not publicized in advance, so that its release would be a surprise for the band — the album was presented to the band live on Dave Bookman's show on CFNY-FM on March 15.[3]
Notably, the album includes reunion performances by three bands, Weeping Tile, Local Rabbits and The Inbreds, who were contemporaries of the Rheostatics in the 1990s Canadian indie rock scene, but had broken up prior to the album's release.[4]
The album was made available as a limited edition CD release through Zunior, but was primarily distributed as a download from the label's website. Profits generated by the album were donated to charity.
