Recording
"Screaming Infidelities" and "Again I Go Unnoticed" were re-recorded from their original appearance on the band's first album The Swiss Army Romance.
Release
The album was released on March 20, 2001. In August 2002, the band went on the Vagrant America arena tour, alongside other Vagrant Records bands.
Reception
The album has been certified Gold by the RIAA, meaning it sold over 500,000 copies in the United States.
The album, according to Rock Sound, gave Dashboard Confessional "a ton of worldwide exposure." This resulted in Carrabba becoming "the poster boy for the emo resurgence of the early 2000s" and the album "defin[ing] an entire movement."
