Your Past Comes Back to Haunt You is the second EP released by Australian metalcore band I Killed the Prom Queen in 2005. It is also the last album to feature Michael Crafter on vocals,[1] besides the re-issue of Music for the Recently Deceased. The EP features a reworked version of "To Be Sleeping While Still Standing" which was originally done by an earlier band including Crafter and Weinhofen called The Fall of Troy. It also includes three tracks form their first EP, Choose to Love, Live or Die, along with two new songs, "Never Never Land" and "You're Not Worth Saving". Some of its tracks appear on the group's live album CD/DVD, Sleepless Nights and City Lights, which was issued in November 2008.[2]
Reception
Aidan Quinn of PunkHardCore website noted that the EP's "quality here is hit and miss really. The unreleased songs are blistering – some of the best stuff the band have written... On the contrary, the rerecorded versions of [earlier tracks] ... are horrible".[3] Ultimate-Guitar.Com's reviewer felt their usual "style of screaming in the verse and singing on the chorus makes them an awesome band" as the group "were starting to make an imprint on the Australian hardcore scene and this album really set them out in the field".[4]
