This was technically a TMWSD release. However it marks the first exact second that all four members of Be Bad started jamming and came into existence in a meaningful way (and did not include either of TMWSD's previous lead singers anyway). It was recorded live on CKDU FM in Halifax at 3:30am November 12 2004. Covers were empty copies of The Plan's "Only These Movements Remain' spray painted gold with sand paper on the inside scratching each copy as it was taken out for the first time.

Our records are carried through a few distros although we highly recommend:
