The Freedom of '76 EP was released by Ween in 1995 on Flying Nun Records. The song was originally featured on Ween's album Chocolate and Cheese. It was said to have known as "one of Ween's most beloved songs". The song was noted to be one of the first Ween songs where Gene Ween hit high notes without digitally enhancing the vocals. The book "Real Wild Chid: An Insider's Tales from the Rage Couch" referred to "Freedom of '76"'s music video as "the fucking best fucking video ever made".
