It was written by band members, Chris Daymond, Kevin Mitchell, Vanessa Thornton and Brett Mitchell. It was released as a single on 11 October 1997 and peaked at No. 65 on the ARIA Singles Chart and was voted in at number 33 in Triple J's Hottest 100 music poll for 1997.

The CD single release was slightly different from the album version as it was remixed with heavier guitars. The song was mixed by American audio engineer, Chris Lord-Alge. The cover image is of the 1915 art deco style Astor Cinema on the intersection of Beaufort and Walcott Streets in Mount Lawley, Western Australia.

The music video was filmed at the Astor Cinema in the Perth suburb of Mount Lawley. The video featured the band playing in front of the cinema's screen while dressed in costumes. In a documentary, Jebediaries (2000), the band's then-manager, Heath Bradby, stated that "Military Strongmen" is his favourite music video.
