The pair of tracks follow lead single "Cap In Hand", and see singer E (Mark Oliver Everett) contemplate morality and celebrate the precious nature of friendship.
Speaking about "All Forgotten", Everett explains, "You can find the idea of your existence ending troubling or comforting. I try to lean towards the comforting take whenever possible: For thousands, millions of years you didn’t exist, and you and the world were fine. You’ll be fine not existing again. This is what hit songs are written about, right?"
Discussing "I'm On Standby", he says, “If you’re lucky you have a friend you’re always there for and vice versa. Bitch, I’ve always got time for you.
