Science & Faith

For the album's release in the United States, "Bullet from a Gun" was added to the track listing, and a remix of "Walk Away", featuring American rapper B.o.B, which was originally set to be a single stateside, was also added. On 16 October 2011, the album was re-released in Asia, in the form of a "Tour Edition", which again adds "Bullet from a Gun" to the track list, as well as a live version of "Science & Faith", and a bonus DVD containing the music videos for "For the First Time" and "Nothing", two behind the scenes segments, a director's cut video, a television performance clip, and a short documentary trailing the band's performance at Arthur's Day in Ireland. This particular version of the album has never been issued in Ireland or the UK.

• "For the First Time" was released as the album's lead single in Ireland on 3 September 2010, and in the United Kingdom on 5 September. It debuted at number one in Ireland, becoming their first number-one single. The song went on to peak at two on the UK Singles Chart, originally entering the chart at five.{{cite web|url=http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a251524/the-script-confirm-album-release-details.html|title=The Script confirm album release details|website=Digital Spy |date=27 July 2010|accessdate=3 October 2016}} The single's release was backed with a live version of "Breakeven" from the Shephard's Bush Empire concert. A version of "Rusty Halo" from the concert was earlier released as B-side to "The Man Who Can't Be Moved".{{cite web|url=http://www.thescriptmusic.com/ie/news_and_diary/news/new_album_and_single_message_from_the_band/|title=The Script|accessdate=3 October 2016}}
• "Nothing" was released as the second single from the album on 19 November 2010. It peaked at number 15 in Ireland and #42 in the United Kingdom, becoming the band's lowest charting single there to date. The single was heavily promoted, with a music video being released one and a half months prior to the single's release, and the song receiving heavy radio airplay from BBC Radio 2.{{cite web|title='Nothing' Exclusive Behind The Scenes Footage! |url=http://www.thescriptmusic.com/gb/news_and_diary/news/2010-10-13/nothing_exclusive_behind_the_scenes_footage/|date=13 October 2010|publisher=Thescriptmusic.com|access-date=17 October 2010}}
• "If You Ever Come Back" was released as the third single from the album on 4 April 2011. The single was promoted through a performance during the band's stint as house band on Jason Manford's Comedy Rocks! on 30 March. A music video was also filmed to promote the release, and despite being labelled by critics{{Who|date=May 2017}} as one of the standout tracks from the album, it only peaked at number 115 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the band's worst performing single ever.
• "Science & Faith" was released as the album's fourth and final single on 27 May 2011. The single was backed with a live version of the track from the Birmingham N.E.C, which was later included on the Asian Tour Edition of the album. It was being promoted through a performance of the track during the live stages of the fifth series of Britain's Got Talent.
• "Walk Away" was originally due to be released as a single in the United States, even being remixed to feature American rapper B.o.B. However, the release was cancelled, and the remix was instead included as a bonus track on the American edition of the album. "Walk Away" was never considered for release in any other territory.

The album started atop the Irish Albums Chart with 13,200 units.{{Cite web|url=https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/the-scripts-official-irish-singles-chart-history-the-numbers-behind-their-success-in-ireland__27324/|title=The Script's Official Irish Singles Chart history so far|website=officialcharts.com|language=en|access-date=2019-09-29}} At this time, the Gold certification disc was attributed for 7,500 copies sold.
