The songs were recorded with the intention of vocals to be done when Sweeney returned to the US, but instead Barton decided to release the recordings with the rough vocals that can be heard on the album.{{Cite web |title=Spotify |url=https://open.spotify.com/artist/3ajFkVCY2HEU8hCFJ9W15c?si=YrVwcHLXQiCAwihxgSN0QQ |access-date=2024-07-05 |website=open.spotify.com}} Sweeney designed all the artwork for the band and made some "quick & dirty" music videos with friends from Leeds, Yorkshire, UK, and old the Dead Pets band member Tim Millington, aka Stash, as the "Jack the Lad" character.{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=al7xMy9hnOg |title=EVERYBODY OUT! j Jack the Lad |date=2024-07-05 |last=EVERYBODY OUT! |access-date=2024-07-05 |via=YouTube}} The band also recorded a song for the Red Sox's “Royal Rooters” documentary,{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLD-chPxIX4 |title=Rooters: The Birth of Red Sox Nation - Trailer |date=2007-09-25 |last=RootersTheFilm |access-date=2024-07-05 |via=YouTube}} which was featured on the "Struggle and Strife" EP.
