 Lead singer and guitarist Darren Cordeux initially wrote about two albums worth of songs, and said that it was "the rock'n'roll exciting album that ended up being recorded, but also a Lemonheads-y, '90s country-tinged songs [album was recorded].But we chose the first one because we wanted something hard-hitting and less polite than the first album".The first single, "Opinions Won't Keep You Warm at Night", was released on 9 June 2007 and made its chart entry at number 10 on the ARIA Charts, spending 20 weeks in the top 50.
