A couple of the new song titles were altered a little from their original names – "The Usual Results" has been renamed from "You Bitch (The Usual Results)", and "Top Eight" has been shortened from "I'm Taking You Out of My Top Eight".

The opening track, "Love Your Friends, Die Laughing", has been slightly remastered to give the acoustic guitars a 'bigger' sound, giving it more of a live sound in keeping with the ethos of the song.
Track 5, "Dude, Are You Kidding Me?", also has a marginally extended runtime (16 seconds) from its original length on Hung Up On Nothing, due to an added sound clip on the end of it.

Before We Met was reissued on January 7, 2013 on new vinyl pressings in gatefold form, CD, and cassette. The reissue features 5 extra tracks, which were previously unreleased demos. The demos are of tracks 2-5, and then 8.
