Volatile Times is the first IAMX album released on vinyl.

New songs from the album that were performed on 22 October 2010 at the Prague show at Meet Factory included "Fire and Whispers", "Bernadette", "Oh Beautiful Town", "Music People", and "Cold Red Light".

The lead single from the album, "Ghosts of Utopia", premiered on Czech Radio 1 on 23 January. It was released as a digital download on 25 February and includes a remix by Noblesse Oblige, who were the supporting band for the Fire & Whispers Tour. A music video for the single, directed and edited by Chris Corner, premiered on tape.tv on 23 February.

A free download of "Fire and Whispers" was made available on 4 March, as part of the countdown of the album. The full album was leaked online on 12 March, a fact that Corner acknowledged on the day of the album's release.

On 2 September 2013 the album was released digitally in the US with an alternative cover, and all songs were remixed and remastered by Chris Corner.
