Release
On Day #33 of the band's site, The Dead Letter Circus Project, the band put up a snippet of the song's riff. Over the next few days, the band put up bits and pieces to do with the song, like photos and videos of the band recording the song, a ringtone of the song, and others. Then, on Day #40, the band finally put up a full .mp3 download of the song. They also put up the artwork Cameron Gray had made for the song the following day, as he will be making artwork for every song from the album, as well as the album artwork. A music video for the song was released on YouTube on 23 May. It was also featured on Channel V's new music countdown later that day.
