The album was recorded at Soundworks Studios in Leeds over a fairly long time span in the second half of 2006. In between recording the album the band toured vigorously, touring with the likes of The Holloways and Kaiser Chiefs. The first release from the album sessions was 'I Found Out' which came out in November 2006 giving the band their first top 40 hit.
Following on from the success of 'I Found Out', the song 'Romantic Type' was chosen as the next single. On 2 January 2007 the song was given its first airing on BBC Radio One only 2 hours after the final master was finished. 'Romantic Type' hit number No. 19 in the charts on 4 March 2007.
Later that month the band finished mixing the final album with Stephen Harris and Cenzo Townsend.
After a second top 20 hit with 'I'm Not Sorry' hitting number No. 12, 'Wait For Me' was released on 28 May 2007. The Pigeon Detectives released 2 more singles from the album: 'Take Her Back' reached number 20 in August 2007 and a re-recorded version of 'I Found Out', released on 12 November.
Bonus track[edit]
For the Japanese version of the album a re-worked version of the track 'Let Go' was included. This track became available in the UK in November 2007 through iTunes.
