"Fall Behind Me" led the charge for Gold Medal, the Donnas' sixth album, out on Atlantic in October 2004. The record took a bumpy road to get there: drummer Torry Castellano needed wrist surgery for tendonitis ahead of the band's Lollapalooza 2003 slot, the band started working up slower songs in the meantime, and early sessions with Scott Litt stalled before they landed on Butch Walker.
Walker produced the track, and the album was cut in Hollywood over June and July 2004 at Black in Back and Conway Recording Studios. The slower material gave Allison Robertson room to try new things on guitar, while Gold Medal stuck with the hard rock of Spend the Night. The band took the single out on a US tour as the year wound down.
