No More Censorship was notably the first album by the band to be released by reggae label RAS Records, at the time RAS was attempting to dive into a rock market. The label brought Scream on board to attract other burgeoning rock acts.

In 2009, there were reports that Dave Grohl was interested in re-mixing the album for re-release.[1] A reissue of the album, subtitled "NMC17", was released for Record Store Day/black Friday in 2017 by Southern Lord Recordings featuring a new mix overseen by guitarist Franz Stahl, an augmented track list, and all new artwork.[2] The album was fully released on 27 April 2018.
