The song is an older track initially released on the bands 2003 self-titled album but was denied a full release by the bands then label.

Kloot lead singer John Bramwell said of their former labels refusal to release the song; “I thought if you’re not going to release that then I don’t know what I’m ever going to give you that you’ll want to release.”
