The track was released to radio in late June, and was made available to download on iTunes July 6.

Singer Jesse Hasek says that the song "Shoot It Out" is about the pressures the band has faced in the music business.

"It's a very aggressive song and it's a little bit of angst towards just how they don't leave you alone to be the musicians you are," he tells The Pulse of Radio.

"You hear it with a lot of bands, the whole 'jaded' scenario, but it's true, because we're a bunch of musicians that were writing music all on our own with no outside sources affecting us.

[3] "Shoot It Out" peaked on Billboard's Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks at number 6, for the issue date of November 27, 2010[4] and spent 25 weeks on the chart.
