It was released by In the Red Records on 2 March 2009 in the UK and a day later in the USA.

However, the band was unhappy with the takes recorded in the sessions with Reatard and subsequently rerecorded the album with Orville Neeley.

[7][8] Ryan Sambol has said that this was because the recording sessions with Reatard took place at a time when the songs were still "new", and that he "hadn't really finished them".

[8] Dusted magazine reported that the recordings with Neeley were made in a disused liquor store.

He clarified that this had been the case with an earlier release, recorded with Greg Ashley, not The Strange Boys and Girls Club, the recording of which took place in Neeley's garage.
