The 1987 self-titled LP Embrace was the seminal emocore group's singular, posthumous release. Dischord Records number 24 was compiled from the only two studio sessions the band recorded. The first eleven tracks were laid down in November of 1985, and the other three were done in February of 1986. All of the songs were recorded at Inner Ear Studios and featured the same lineup. Originally released on cassette tape and vinyl, it was released on CD in 1992 as Dischord number 24CD. In May 2002, the CD was re-mastered with two extra tracks, previously unreleased alternate versions of "Money" and "Dance of Days" taken from the first recording session.
