After demoing some songs that year such as "Fear of Drowning", "Hide and Seek", "Searching in the Wilderness" and "Write Through the Night" (called "Organ Song" as a demo, because of the heavy usage of organ-soundlike synthesizers), the first single would become "Look at Me",[9] released through the Pure Groove label, supposedly to be limited to just 200 copies on a one-sided red vinyl 7".

Skint Records appeared to be an obvious choice, because the label is from Mirrors' home town Brighton, making face-to-face contact much easier.

Mirrors continued with performing the occasional gigs in the United Kingdom[12] until they headed into the studio in June 2010,[13] working on their début album.

The EP contains the two new songs that were made available in October 2011 plus five previously unreleased demos, which were recorded either in the last couple of months or during their first album session in June 2010.
