Trivia

  • John Parish was thought of as a producer for the album because the band was impressed with his work on Dance Hall at Louse Point.
  • The album was also released in a French Version and a "Nouvelle Version" with slightly different track lists. Most notably, the Nouvelle Version also included a rendition of the Gun Club song "Fire Spirit" and Marly/d'Astier composition "The Partisan", both with the participation of Bertrand Cantat, as well as a re-recording of "Coal Black Horses", originally featured on the 16 Horsepower EP.
