It was released while At War With the Mystics, the full-length follow-up to Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, was being recorded. Despite being named after the Yoshimi... album track "Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell", the song is not the lead track and does not even appear in its original form, but rather as two club-oriented remixes.
