The album was originally released with a lenticular cover, with two images of Scott Lucas and Brian St. Clair. Later printings were not lenticular, and only included the image of Lucas on the cover.

The album was originally to be released in late 2001 but it got delayed to 2002 due to the effects of the 9/11 attacks.

On September 12, 2022, the album was reissued as a 2-CD set for purchase on the band's website. The first disc features the original 10 tracks, while the second is a compilation of rough mixes from Here Comes the Zoo recording sessions. These rough mixes include the original 10 album tracks plus four others: three B-sides (Static Age, 25 Or 6 To 4, Stick To What You Know) and one track that was later featured on the No Fun EP in 2003 (Cooler Heads).[9]
