Notes
- "Kountry Gentleman", "Replace Me", and "Love Addict" were the first singles off the record; in fact, a video for "Kountry Gentleman" was actually released in the summer of 2005, about nine months before the full-length album was released. No video was made for "Replace Me"; the song was sent only to Christian radio. A video was released for "Love Addict" in mid-2006.
- Advance copies of the album did not include "Replace Me"; the song "Earthquake" was instead followed by "Lose Urself", "Peachy", "Supersonic", "Numb", and "Colour of Water", which did not make it onto the final record. Solomon Olds explained that the band's record labels (Maverick and Gotee) only wanted twelve songs for the album and the band thought "Replace Me" was a better song than "Colour of Water".[8]
- "Kountry Gentleman" was featured in the trailer for the kung-fu film "The Warrior's Way."
- "Love Addict" was released as downloadable content for the music game Rock Band 2."
- "Love Addict" is on the Digital Praise PC game Guitar Praise.
Awards
In 2007, the album was nominated for a Dove Award for Rock Album of the Year at the 38th GMA Dove Awards.[9]
