See This Through and Leave is the debut album by the Cooper Temple Clause. The title of the album comes from a lyric in the track "Murder Song".
The liner notes give 'thanks' to Five and Westlife "for their ongoing financial support". This is a humorous reference to the fact that the Cooper Temple Clause shared a record label with the two popular boy bands, who could be seen to have helped finance this album.
It was released as a CD, a limited edition double CD, an international CD, and a 7" boxed set, along with two promo CDs.
The album reached No. 27 on the UK Albums Chart.[1]
"Let's Kill Music" is the first single from this album and the first to have a promo video.. It entered at #41 in the UK Singles Chart[2]
"Film-Maker // Been Training Dogs" is a 2002 double A-side from this album. It peaked at number twenty on the UK Singles Chart. Each CD for this single was enhanced with the promo videos, on-set interviews with the band, photographs from the shoot, roll calls, and tokens. The A-side of the 7" was double-tracked, meaning that it contained two separate groove paths, one for each of the lead tracks, which means that it is essentially down to chance whether you hear "Film-Maker" or "Been Training Dogs".
"Who Needs Enemies?" is the third and final single from See This Through and Leave. It peaked at number twenty-two on the UK Singles Chart.
The international CD contains an extra track, "Safe Enough Distance Away".
