The song, "New Day", was written and recorded for this album, however, by the time the mixing came about, the band could not find the track. In 2010, while recording the process for The Infinite Order, the band discovered the lost track, with the song debuting in 2017, on a benefit compilation We Bear the Scars, for Timothy Henderson (formerly of Warlord).
