The demos were recorded in Joe Hawley's attic/bedroom using a digital camcorder and recording each track one by one. These were then edited together on Final Cut Pro on Joe's Mac.<ref>[https://acoatofredpaintinhell.wordpress.com/2008/03/05/tally-hall-an-interview-with-rob-joe-andrew-zubin-and-ross/ A Coat of Red Paint in Hell Tally Hall interview 2006]</ref> Banana Man is the only original track. After the recording of the Welcome To Tally Hall EP, the band would head back to the original Party Boobytrap recordings and touch them up a bit for Complete Demos, whether that be minor mixing issues or new overdubs.

Most of the tracks went on to be retooled and re-recorded for [[Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum]], with the exception of [[Stationary Love]] and [[(I Know) It's Just The Same]]. It is unknown why these were not re-recorded but its possible they considered them not good enough to record.
