Release

Early promotional copies of this album included a bonus track "Lost At Sea (Remix)" at the end of the album. The band later decided to drop the bonus track from the official release. It later appeared on an Urban Outfitters compilation CD and on a radio promotional EP alongside "Telescope Eyes", "I Wasn't Prepared", and "Golly Sandra".

Due to conflicting thoughts with Warner Brothers, only 1000 copies of Room Noises were printed on vinyl originally. The band is now working on getting Room Noises released along with Combinations in a dual vinyl pack.
