The album debuted at number 1 on the UK Albums Chart. It was certified Gold by the BPI on 1 February 2002. The band's second and third albums Dig Your Own Hole and Surrender brought the band international fame. The band had a worldide tour for Surrender beginning in 1999, continuing until summer 2000 when they played festivals including legendary performances at Glastonbury Festival and Creamfields. Following the festivals, the band created a new track, premiered in December 2000 when the band supported U2. Tom Rowlands seemed to initally have mixed feelings about the track, saying it had "quite a lot of percussion, big, sweeping sort of stuff. Live conga playing, quite spaced out. It's like Body & Soul, but really, really hard and twisted, it's like high-impact, full-on, but with more organic sounds, and quite intense, without the good vibe.", though the track was popular with fans, and eventually was released as a white label release, "Electronic Battle Weapon 5", in June 2001.
