Vinyl, CD & Download All tracks are written by Jordan GatesmithThe EP received positive reviews from NME, Drowned In Sound and the BBC.

There is an official video for main track (but not single) "I Told You Once" up on YouTube (but not uploaded under Howler's official account) that shows lead singer Jordan Gatesmith singing into a microphone in a dance studio, backed by singing dancers in leotards.

Then it shows Jordan and guitarist, Ian Nygaard playing with knives in one of the band member's bedroom.

In an NME article about Howler's Minnesota Turf Club gig, it says: "It's rumoured Gatesmith considered leaving the song (I Told You Once) off their forthcoming LP, but on evidence of this grudging rendition, it sounds like he's decided to make "..Once" exhibit A for Howler's rapid evolution".

The lyrics of the songs stayed the same when they were re-recorded for "America Give Up" apart from a line from "You Like White Women, I Like Cigarettes", (the lyrics were changed as well as the name) : "Now there’s one thing that is true, you’re a bitch and I hate you" was changed to "Now there's one thing that is true, I need someone to play but I don't know who".
