As of April 2015, it is also the last regular studio album by The The, except for two soundtracks. On the album, guitarist Eric Schermerhorn, who had joined The The before the recording of Hanky Panky (replacing Johnny Marr), takes an active role alongside Matt Johnson, with co-writing credits on six out of twelve tracks.
