The B-side featured a cover version of David Bowie's "Starman", which had originally been recorded for a Sirius Radio tribute broadcast organised by Howard Stern and Tony Visconti. "We opted for "Starman" because Bowie was the 'Starman' who blew our minds," the band said in a statement.

In 2021, both "Destroying Angels" and "Starman" would be included on the deluxe edition bonus disc of Garbage's seventh album, No Gods No Masters.
