This was initially planned to be a solo release by Topon Das, however, it was migrated over to Fuck the Facts after the band realized that another full-length album was not feasible at that time. As such, the EP tends to show more overt electronic influences than previous releases.

In the UK, this EP was released without the enhanced tracks as an untitled split with Narcosis, Midget Parage and Archer on Privileged to Fail Records. A digital version of the EP was released in January 2011 and included a bonus track "Legacy of Hopelessness".

gollark: What? I haven't heard of that.
gollark: So if it's before then and I don't lose a bunch of data it would obviously be possible to check such things.
gollark: I can check, I have a closed timelike curve connected to 2103.
gollark: The most interesting quantum thingy™ I'm aware of is Grover's algorithm, which seems to just magically be able to speed up some search-ish/brute-force things using magic.
