video budget. John Davis believed, had Elektra promoted the album and not been "risk-averse" with their choice of the album's singles, Head Trip in Every Key could have been more successful, citing the efforts of Elektra radio promoter Jim Cortez. Cortez, who was described by Davis as "the one person at the company that wholeheartedly believed in Head Trip In Every Key", strongly attempted to push the singles of the album to radio in his area, was able to convince Elektra to release "Hellbent" as a single, and helped get the band some appearances at some radio festivals. Despite this, Davis still was not surprised about the album's lack of success, owing to the album having been released amidst the rise of nu metal, and also due to the band's refusal to concede with Elektra over the album. Davis would have preferred "The Art of Dying" and "Pine Away" as the album's singles. On July 9, 2014, SideOneDummy Records, which previously released Regretfully Yours on vinyl for the first time, announced a double-LP vinyl pressing of the album, along with a double-LP compilation of demos recorded prior, to be released August 12.
