It offered fans a chance to hear a different side of Pennywise and appreciate the origins of their signature SoCal punk sound. The album features a mix of fast-paced punk anthems and more melodic, introspective tracks, reflecting the band's diverse influences during their early development.

The artwork for Yesterdays typically features imagery associated with Pennywise's early years, often incorporating archival photos and designs. The album was generally well-received by fans and critics, who praised its historical significance and the quality of the remastered material.
