Album Artwork

The CD cover is a spoof on Andy Warhol's album cover for The Velvet Underground & Nico (1967) by The Velvet Underground. Instead of featuring a banana with the words "peel slowly and see", it instead depicts an avocado with the accompanying phrase "mush slowly and guac."

Release

On March 18, 2004, shortly after the band got signed to Drive-Thru, the first five tracks were released digitally, as the second of two free downloadable EPs (the first one being Jenoah's Morning Is When Jenoah Wakes Up) on the label's homepage. The Hellogoodbye EP was downloaded about 300,000 times, while the physical release issued half a year later sold over 80,000 copies to date. With the physical release, which featured the sixth track, the download offer was discontinued.
