Background
Five of the tracks are re-recordings of The Party Scene (2005) songs. The title originates from lyrics taken from "Break Out! Break Out!".
On March 28, 2006, it was announced that the band signed to Hopeless Records. The group finished recording Put Up or Shut Up in March, before embarking on a tour with Transition a month later.{{cite web|url=http://www.altpress.com/index.php/news/entry/archive_581|title=Hopeless signs All Time Low; band touring with Transition|work=Alternative Press|date=March 28, 2006|accessdate=July 20, 2016}} From August to October, the band supported Amber Pacific on their tour of the U.S.{{cite web|url=http://www.altpress.com/index.php/news/entry/archive_1048|title=Ex-Yellowcard guitarist Ben Harper joins Amber Pacific|work=Alternative Press|date=July 24, 2006|accessdate=July 31, 2016}}
Composition
Emily Zemler of Alternative Press called the tracks on the EP "bouncy pop-punk", while comparing the sound of the EP overall to Fall Out Boy and New Found Glory.{{Cite web|url= https://www.altpress.com/putuporshutup/|work=Alternative Press|title=All Time Low – Put Up Or Shut Up|first=Emily|last=Zemler|accessdate=February 3, 2023|date=June 14, 2010|quote=The seven bouncy pop-punk tracks on the EP, several of which the band still play live, are blatantly drawn from Fall Out Boy and New Found Glory—both of whom ATL have professed love for.}}
