Background

Before the release of the album, Wednesday 13 released a few acoustic versions of songs from Bloodwork and Spook and Destroy EPs with an acoustic version of "Curse of Me" first appearing on Spook and Destroy. The album was released shortly after "The Undead Unplugged UK Tour" in May 2014. The tour featured only 3 musicians with Wednesday on vocals and guitar and Roman Surman and Jack Tankersley on guitar.[1] Despite Roman's involvement in the tour only Wednesday and Jack performed on the album.

gollark: Also, the only ones I've used have annoyingly high key travel, thus bad.
gollark: Mechanical ones are big and expensive.
gollark: I only use random commodity laptop keyboards.
gollark: 15-second typing tests are unrepresentative.
gollark: I do about 130WPM on prose-style typing tests, and probably write slower in chats and stuff due to latency induced by sometimes having to think hard about contents.
