Overview

edit

Short Style features 5 tracks, 4 originals and a cover of Men at Work's song "Overkill", originally written by Colin Hay, who makes a guest appearance on the track.[2] All of the songs from the EP appeared on the band's debut album 11 Transistor, which was released half a year later. However, the song "Prada Wallet" was not featured in the track listing and appeared as a hidden track.

The length of the song "Sleep" in incorrectly listed on the EP as 3:48, but it is actually the same version that was released on 11 Transistor.
