Four volumes are set to release, one focusing on covering patriotic and pub rock anthems, another on mostly 2000s pop rock and emotional songs, a third containing covers of alternative and experimental indie tunes, with the final volume being for miscellaenous tracks. While it is the case that these volumes have these themes to them, most of the covers have their genre changed from the original. Truncated versions of each volume are also set to be released on streaming services, due to copyright issues where the rights to some songs could not be secured. | Four volumes are set to release, one focusing on covering patriotic and pub rock anthems, another on mostly 2000s pop rock and emotional songs, a third containing covers of alternative and experimental indie tunes, with the final volume being for miscellaenous tracks.

The fourth album in the set contains an original skit titled "[[She'll Be Roight, Mate]]" which leads into the second-last bonus track, "Xanadu". In the skit, | The fourth album in the set contains an original skit titled "[[She'll Be Roight, Mate]]" which leads into the second-last bonus track, "Xanadu". In the skit, Neoclassics band members have an "argie bargie" (Australian slang term for "argument") over whether the following track can be considered Australian, due it to just having late British-Australian singer Olivia Newton-John as the original artist, and whether preceding tracks were even Australian too. Every argument is shut down with a voice saying the Aussie slang phrase "She'll be right". The final bonus track, "Sydney", is also not lyrically or thematically about the Australian town, but is included in the album in reference to it. | ||
