  • The song "A Small Spark vs. A Great Forest" was the third song to be released on their Purevolume and MySpace.
  • The album was leaked onto Torrents and P2P networks on July 29th. Contrary to popular belief, the leaked album was indeed mastered and the same as the retail version, although some leaked versions were of lesser quality.
  • The song "No Passenger: No Parasite" seems to have derived its title and the majority of lyrics from the book "Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis, in which Lewis describes a fully Christian society as having "no passengers or parasites"[1].
