Interestin info: The label wanted to see, how good Have Mercy would be accepted and worth investing in – so they offered to release the “Mass Destruction” demo as an EP first, and then, if everything would go OK, they'd give Have Mercy a real record deal. The band agreed with this, but wanted to record the songs again, because they weren't happy with the sound of the “Mass Destruction” demo.
