Demos

There are three circulating demos from Diary recording sessions, which took place at Idful Studios, in Chicago.

  • "In Circles"
  • "Rodeo Jones"
  • "Song About an Angel"

Trivia

  • The "butterfly" drawing on the album's book was created by Nate Mendel's father.
  • The vinyl has been released in three limited edition pressings, all of which are out of print. The first was a multi-colored splatter vinyl, released on "Glitterhouse Records" in Germany. The second was a black vinyl pressing on Sub Pop Records. A repress followed on green vinyl (and possibly a second black pressing) but the label for this second pressing states "Edition II" under the Sub Pop logo. All three vinyl pressings are missing 3 songs that are present on the CD, possibly due to the time constraints of vinyl (the album clocks in at 53 minutes). The missing songs are "Round", "48" and "Grendel".
  • The album cover features the popular children's toy Little People.
