The full EP was released for streaming at [http://hypem.com/ The Hype Machine] and [http://soundcloud.com SoundcloudSoundCloud] on November 8th November, 2012.

A limited number of copies of the physical release were for sale on HTDA's official webstore, and all copies bought through the site came packaged with a exclusive white label pressing of the EP's lead single, ''[[Keep It Together(single)|Keep It Together]]'', on 12" vinyl.

===Music videos=Videos==

"[[Ice Age]]" did not get a single release, but was still given a full music video (similar to how "[[A Drowning]]" was the single from the band's [[How To Destroy Angels (album)|first EP]], but "[[The Space In Between]]" got the music video). The video reflects the artwork of the band in terms of distortion and CRT monitor effects, and was directed by [[wp:John Hillcoat|John Hillcoat]]. 

Like "Ice Age,", "[[The Loop Closes]]" was not released as a single, but given a music video, released on January 10th , 2013. The video was directed by the entire band and features the full band singing the lyrics, accompanied by both stock footage and newly shot footage, all of which is stylized with heavy distortion much like the entirety of the artwork for the EP. The video's release was accompanied by confirmation that the band's first full-length release, ''[[Welcome Oblivion]]'', would be released March 5th , 2013.

All versions were released on November 13th, 2012.

The art of the EP was conceived by the entire HTDA group, and was primarily executed by Rob Sheridan. He used a technique of creating art, placing the image onto VHS tapes and then photographing distortion through a CRT monitoras shown [http://robsheridan.tumblr.com/post/44483580368/making-some-htda-visuals here].
