Content
''Comes and Goes'' was originally going to be released on TVT Records, which went bankrupt in 2008. As a result, the band underwent several court cases before
EMI Canada licensed the rights to the album. Label executives made the decision because they felt that Default was more financially viable than other TVT acts.
Critical reception
Rating it two-and-a-half stars out of five, Christopher Tessmer of ''The Leader-Post'' thought that "Caught in the Moment" was one of the band's best songs, but otherwise found the album's sound "formulaic".
