The album includes the demos of the songs like "What I've Done" and "Robot Boy" from their studio albums, Minutes to Midnight and A Thousand Suns respectively.
Before Minutes to Midnight in 2007, and after the second debut release of Meteora, the album features demos of songs, such as What I've Done as the "Original Demo" to the song, entitled as "Bang Three (What I've Done Original Demo)", recorded and released in the album before the final version of What I've Done is featured and recorded on Minutes to Midnight, charting the song as the first single on the charts.
