Felt's debut album released by in February 1982. Running at just over 30 minutes, this is sometimes considered to be a "mini-album" but is not officially recognised as such. The original printing of the sleeve shows Lawrence's full face. This was quickly replaced with a new sleeve featuring a vertical black bar obscuring the left portion of the face. A reissue in 1984 had a fractionally wider black bar and featured new labels. The card sleeve reissue from 2003 dispensed with the black bar but re-cropped the image to achieve a similar effect.
A new recording of "Cathedral" was featured as the B-side to 1985's Primitive Painters.
