It was the 32nd release of the [[Omaha, Nebraska]]-based record label [[Saddle Creek Records]]. The album was released later in 2000 in the [[United Kingdom]] as the inaugural release from [[Wichita Recordings]].<ref>[https://pitchfork.com/news/38347-yeah-yeah-yeahs-bright-eyes-help-wichita-celebrate-10th-anniversary/ Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bright Eyes Help Wichita Celebrate 10th Anniversary | News | Pitchfork<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> The album begins with a recording of a little boy reading ''Mitchell Is Moving'', a book by [[Marjorie Weinman Sharmat]]. "An Attempt to Tip the Scales" includes what is ostensibly an interview with the band's frontman, [[Conor Oberst]]. However, Oberst has admitted that the interview was something of a joke, intended to poke fun at the dark tone of the album. Conor's voice is impersonated in the interview by [[Todd Fink]] of [[The Faint]] and [[Commander Venus]]. The man interviewing is Matt Silcock, a former member of [[Lullaby for the Working Class]].<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.kittymagik.com/interviewsViewer.asp?artist=36| title = KittyMagik.com Interview| last = Phillips| first = Amy|date=April 2005| access-date = July 16, 2007| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070608034447/http://www.kittymagik.com/interviewsViewer.asp?artist=36| archive-date = June 8, 2007}}</ref> The album was reissued alongside a six-track companion EP by [[Dead Oceans]] on May 27, 2022.
