Following the release of Everyone Into Position , Oceansize subsequently left Beggars Banquet . The band sought a new record deal that would better support the band in terms of promotion and financial backing for international touring. Mike Vennart implied in a recent interview that the record deal was contingent on the band writing two tracks “on order” for the company. These mp3s were released on the band’s Myspace page around Christmas 2006 as a band-described gift to the fans. The two songs were “Red Rag to a Bear” and “Siberian Bullshit”. In the posting of these mp3s, Vennart described these tracks as “warts an’ all,” and suggested that they would not show up on the new album.
