"A Coloring Storybook and Long Playing Record" is the first EP by the band, Cinematic Sunrise, a side project of Chiodos' Bradley Bell and Craig Owens. It was originally released with four color pencils intended for use on a book that includes drawings of animals with caricatures of the band members hidden somewhere in the environment.

Craig Owens has said in an interview that he requested crayons, not colored pencils. He was supposedly disappointed by Equal Vision's mishap.
