The four-song collection follows 2015’s excellent Disquiet LP, and leads with that album’s third single (the title track, “Tides”), followed by two new B-sides and a remix of “Insecurity,” a different version of which also appeared on Disquiet.

Regarding “Tides,” Therapy?’s Andy Cairns recalls:

When I lived in Dun Laoghaire in Ireland I used to live near the harbour, and some nights I’d stay up all night to try to get inspiration for songs and I often ended up going down to the pier and just looking out at the waves. Later on I found out that Samuel Beckett used to get a great deal of influence from that as well… I took that low point in my life and how I managed to dig myself out of it as an inspiration. 

Originally Tides was written kinda like Die Laughing or Nowhere off Troublegum, with a catchy Husker Du-influenced chorus, but we took a bit of influence from bands like My Bloody Valentine with the brief section of warped guitar.
