Track listing
In an interview with SunsetInTheRearview.com, Tank described how "Last Night I Heard Everything In Slow Motion" was a university assignment and that the song is about "being unsure about something to the extent that it plagues and consumes you." Regarding, "The Last Time," Oliver Tank has explained "this track's about when you're with someone you really care about and it all sort of falls apart. You replay those last moments over and over again in your head. It consumes you. Although at the same time it's kind of liberating and inspiring."
In 2011 an edited version of Tank's "Last Night I Heard Everything In Slow Motion" was featured in a Marriage Equality Advertisement, It's Time, put together by the organisation GetUp!.
"Last Night I heard Everything In Slow Motion" was used in a trailer for the open-world driving game, The Crew, at the E3 2014 computer and video games trade fair at the Los Angeles Convention Centre.
