The track "Stability" would later reappear as "Stable Song", acting as the closing track to their 2005 major label debut, '' Plans ''. The new recording is considerably shorter than the original thirteen-minute, mostly instrumental version found on this E.P., ending when the vocals end. A live rehearsal version of "Stability" can be found on the DVD '' Drive Well, Sleep Carefully '', which clocks in at 10:03; this version is unusual as the song is rarely performed live, and even then is often only as long as the "Stable Song" version. It also continues with lyrics throughout the recording, although the muddy quality of the vocals in the audio makes it somewhat unclear what Gibbard is singing.

The track " All Is Full Of Love " is a Björk cover.
