All 7 tracks would be re-released internationally on the 2007 full length album The Power of Rock and Roll.

The track "Heavy Metal Love", originally from No Rest for the Wicked, was re-recorded here due to a dispute with EMI. The song was to be featured on the soundtrack for the Trailer Park Boys movie "The Big Dirty", however the track was pulled by Dean Cameron, president of EMI Canada. The reason given was that distribution of the soundtrack was being handled by Universal, and not EMI who owns the track. The band instead chose to re-record it and include it on Get Up!
