The Science of Letting Go - EP Tracklist
Speaking with Uproxx, Sean Scanlon stated that The Science of Letting Go would be based more on real life situations and a different outlook lyrically than Smallpools' previous work.
I wanted this album to be about more real, situational type of things. Those initial EPs was more about quirky, fun lyrics. They were still things that happened to me, but they were kind of wrapped up in code.

Where did the title come from?
In an interview with Baeble Music, lead singer Sean Scanlon said:
I think it just so happened that the songs that we landed on for this EP all kind of had a piece of that (letting go) theme to them in some way or another. I think that letting go is an interesting thing, and that it’s very hard for humans to do. They are creatures of habit. And it was an interesting title for me. There’s a song that has to do with needing to let go of something that’s obviously bad for you, but you keep trying to make it work. There are songs about letting go of inhibitions in order to move forward in your career. It just kind of landed that way, but I like the title and it was a line in one of the songs as well, so I think it came together nicely.
