The album was announced by Fearless Records through a video teaser, posted on January 1, 2014, which also revealed that the first single from the album, to be released on January 7, would be Get Scared's cover of "My Own Worst Enemy" by Lit.

The next song released from the album was Asking Alexandria's cover of Nine Inch Nails' song "Closer", released on February 25. In March it was revealed that rock band Mayday Parade had been recording a music video for their cover of "Comedown" by Bush. The song itself was released on March 18, accompanied by its lyric video.
The album was officially released on April 1, along with the release of Chunk! No, Captain Chunk!'s music video for "All Star", originally by Smash Mouth.
