The EP was also released by C+S Records in the United States under the name of Stars Die and included the song "Always Never" from the Up the Downstair album as an extra track.

"Stars Die" was not included on the original UK release of The Sky Moves Sideways but was included on the US version. The 2CD reissues of The Sky Moves Sideways have the track on the second disc.

The artwork used on the cover of the EP was later used on a compilation album by the band titled Stars Die: The Delerium Years 1991–1997.
