On August 18, 2008, Bradford Cox made a post on the Deerhunter blog, linking readers to download "Holiday" b/w "S.S.C." as part of the
Virtual 7" series (a series of digital singles released by Cox as Atlas Sound on the Deerhunter blog) without realizing his entire
MediaFire account could have been accessed from that link. At the time, the folder contained unmastered demos of
Weird Era Cont. and the Atlas Sound album
Logos. Someone later gained access to these folders and proceeded to upload them onto P2P networks. This later sparked an outrage by Cox, who intended
Weird Era Cont. to be a surprise to those purchasing the album on its street release date. In the blog, Cox expressed his distaste towards the leaks and whoever made them available, commenting: "[
Weird Era Cont.] was supposed to be a surprise and actually make the idea of an 'Album Release Date' fun." Cox later apologized for his response stating "I accept my mistake. I apologize for my reaction. My anger was directed at myself. Sorry for projecting." ==Track listing==
