The single is the last Ash release Charlotte Hatherley would have contributed to, despite having left the band a year prior to the single's release. She is credited to providing guitar, Fender Rhodes, and backing vocal parts for the track "Seventh Circle". The track was recorded during sessions for the Meltdown album, and was held over because it didn't fit the album's motif. The song was previously tentatively named "Singapore Song" as it was written while the band were touring Free All Angels in Singapore.

"Statis in Darkness" is a leftover b-side from Free All Angels.

End of the World is a 1931 French science fiction film directed by Abel Gance based on the novel Omega: The Last Days of the World by Camille Flammarion. The film stars Victor Francen as Martial Novalic, Colette Darfeuil as Genevieve de Murcie, Abel Gance as Jean Novalic, and Jeanne Brindau as Madame Novalic. The plot concerns a comet hurling toward Earth on a collision course and the different reactions people have to the impending disaster. Scientist Martial Novalic who discovers the comet, seeks a solution to the problem and becomes a fugitive after skeptical authorities blame him for starting a mass panic.

End of the World was director Abel Gance's first sound film. The original film was to be over three hours long, but the backing production took the film from Gance, and cut it to be 105 minutes. It was again cut on its release in the United States under the title of Paris after Dark. Both abridged versions of the film were not well received by audiences or critics.
