The EP is a culmination of two years of songwriting by the indie rock band from Consett, Durham, England, who have been together for over 2 years. The band has not decided whether the song "Carry On" or "This is an End" will be used for their self-produced music video, which will feature live performance clips interspersed with solo shots of the band members and be filmed using various camera angles, mostly in dark settings in their practice space in Jesmond, Newcastle.
