"Second Solution/Prisoner of Society" is the first radio single/EP from The Living End, following after the group's second EP. It was the best selling Australian single of the 1990s, and spent a record-breaking 69 weeks on the ARIA Top 50. It provided a breakthrough for the band, bringing them to the attention of the Australian Rock scene. Boosted by the success of this EP, they subsequently went into the studio to record their debut full-length album, The Living End on which they re-recorded both of the title songs and the B-side "Strange".
