Background

In 2007, brothers Jean Paul Makhlouf and Alex Makhlouf spent an entire summer crafting new material in Jean Paul's home recording studio. In early 2008, Cash Cash signed with Universal Republic and released their self-titled EP in October. The EP was self-produced. The song "Fairweather Friend" was taken from the EP By the Bedside which is an old EP from Cash Cash that was released in 2006. An earlier version of "Fairweather Friend", released in 2005, also appears in the album The Consequence. An early version of "Breakout" appears in both The Consequence and By the Bedside.
