Despite excellent reviews and extensive touring in both the United Kingdom and Europe sales were disappointing. Three tracks from the album - "Wintercomessummer", "White Jazz", and "Biography Of A First Son" - were released as singles but failed to pick up significant airplay.

A belated 'Tenth Anniversary Edition' featuring an additional CD of alternative versions, B-sides and live tracks was released on Spinney Records in March 2007.
