This album was remastered by producer, and then-bassist, Dan Hulse in 2005 and re-released with new artwork that summer. A limited run of the album on cassette was also issued that year through Night Birds Records. The whole EP (save for "Awaiting the Inevitable") was later re-issued as part of Woods of Ypres' 2009 compilation CD Independent Nature 2002-2007. Each song on the album would remain a frequent addition in Woods of Ypres setlists to varying degrees since this EP was released.

Personnel
gollark: I mean, right now, our AIs don't reach anywhere near human complexity. But what if Google scales up GPT-3 a few hundred times or something on their vast computing resources, and it manages to do really advanced stuff without doing anything which looks like thinking to humans?
gollark: I don't even know. Our current "AI" systems don't really seem like, well, anything comprehensible to humans?
gollark: But the monotone voices will make people not think too hard about AI rights.
gollark: Well, actually, I do that with the osmarks.tk closed timelike curves regularly and nobody complained.
gollark: Go `serde_derive` yourself.
