In Canada, it was released on April 13, 2010 through Distort Entertainment.[9] The name of the album derives from each of the members' personal nickname (Mike Peters – Bear; Scott Middleton – Mayor; Liam Cormier – Scraps; Jaye R. Schwarzer – Bones).[10] The first single from the album was "Dead Wrong".[11] A music video was previously made and released for "Sabotage" when it was released on the band's EP Sabotage.
