Album information
The album contained the hit single "Make Up Your Mind". It also featured the singles "Nothing Could Come Between Us" and "The Last Song," (which was originally called "Theory of a Deadman" until the band changed the title of the song to the band name), both of which were solely written by Tyler Connolly, the band's lead singer.
The album has a Parental Advisory label on it because it contains expletives in Invisible Man. A clean version was released that removed the expletives on Invisible Man.

Title significance
The title of the album comes from a line in the song "By the Way". The title refers to the "scars and souvenirs," or the ups and downs of one's lifetime, as a large majority of the songs on the album deal with things like relationships and obstacles that one might encounter during his or her life.
Singles
The first single from it, "So Happy" was released to radio on February 11 and can be listened to on their MySpace page while "By the Way" and "Bad Girlfriend" were released on the band's official website on March 10, 2008.
"All or Nothing" was released on June 2 as a single for adult and Hot AC radio. Robin Diaz (Closure; Trapt), Chris Daughtry(Daughtry), and Brent Smith (Shinedown) are guest stars on the album.
The band confirmed on May 14, 2008 that the next single to be released in the US and Canada was "Bad Girlfriend", on rock stations only. As of September 6, 2008, "Bad Girlfriend" is Theory of a Deadman's first single to reach number 1 on the Mainstream Rock Chart.

Critical reception
Stephen Thomas Erlewine writer of Allmusic gave a very negative review to the album with one star out of five and wrote: "Four albums and ten years later, Theory of a Deadman are still content to be Nickelback’s baby brothers, eagerly following within the footsteps of their bigger, tougher siblings." and called the album: "castrated rock with a rotten heart."
