In an interview, Joel Stoker explained how the name of track 7, "Robin Hood", got its title from the band's guitarist, Luke Crowther, and a trip on Soccer AM:

They kept calling Luke 'Robin Hood' because he kept his hat on all the time. The next thing you know there are shouts of 'Robin Hood' at the gigs. We were playing a new song and we didn't have a title for it. I asked the audience for one and someone shouted 'Robin Hood'. So we're calling it that.[1]

On 1 June 2015 No Love Lost was digitally remastered at Abbey Road Studios and re-released as part of the 10th anniversary of the album. The re-release featured b-sides and demos from the recording of the original album.[2]
