After being out of print for a period of time, Kevin announced the album would be re-issued by Triple Crown Records on October 12, 2010. The re-issue features new artwork, extensive liner notes by Devine and an introductory note by Brand New vocalist Jesse Lacey. The re-issue features two previously unreleased demo tracks from the album's sessions, "Funerals and Carnivals" and "You Knock Me Out". A vinyl release is planned for the re-issue.
It is the first of his albums produced by Chris Bracco and Mike Skinner, who would later produce a number of Kevin's recordings, including the albums Split The Country, Split The Street and Brother's Blood. Bracco and Skinner are also members of his band (playing bass and drums, respectively), "The Goddamn Band". Mike Skinner was the previously the drummer of band Miracle of 86, in which Kevin was the lead singer/guitarist.

Famous quotes containing the words clocks and/or move:
“What a devil hast thou to do with the time of the day? Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the
tongues of bawds, and dials the signs of leaping-houses, and the blessed sun himself a fair hot wench in flame-colored
taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous
to demand the time of the day.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“In a land which is fully settled, most men must accept their local environment or try to change it by political means; only the exceptionally gifted or adventurous can leave to seek his fortune elsewhere. In America, on the other hand, to move on and make a fresh start somewhere else is still the normal reaction to dissatisfaction and failure.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
