"Sick Cycle Carousel" followed "Hanging by a Moment" as the second single from No Name Face, Lifehouse's 2000 debut, and DreamWorks put it out in 2001. Singer Jason Wade wrote it with Scott Faircloff and plays guitar, with Sergio Andrade on bass and Jon "Diff" Palmer on drums. Ron Aniello produced and recorded it, with Neal Avron and Jim Scott also on the recording, and Brendan O'Brien mixed.
Critics liked the way Aniello and O'Brien pushed Wade's voice out in front of the band. It went to No. 21 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks and charted at No. 71 in the Netherlands and No. 47 in New Zealand, and its video, which premiered on VH1.com, plays tricks with scale to make things look smaller than they are.
