 A copy of "Metridium Field" came to the attention of employees at experimental music label The End Records resulting in a record deal in 2005.Because of the line-up changes since the recording of "Metridium Field", and the fact that the hard drive containing the original session files for the album had locked up and thus made remixing the record impossible (which the band felt it needed before a worldwide release), Giant Squid decided to rerecord the entire album to reflect their progression in sound and songwriting.This new version features Mike Conroy on drums and Aurielle on both guitar and keyboards as well as a second vocalist.
