[edit] Notes
- The album took two months to record.
- The band rewrote some of their Omaha-era songs for use on this release.
- A single bass note connects tracks "Unity" and "Hydroponic".
- None of the songs on the album were originaly written with SA doing scratches, though later they were.
- The last track, titled "Fat Chance", marks the fourth release of the song "Fuck the Bullshit." On the Volcano reissue it is not labeled as a track on the inserts.
- There is an edited version of the CD, labeled "Clean For In-Store Play" on the front, with clean lyrics for "Freak Out" and without the last track.
- The "Do You Right" video:
The concert scenes were taken at Sokol Hall. Other shooting locations included the Omaha Zoo and the Old Market area.
- After that shoot, Sokol banned rock concerts for several years. It may have been the swinging chandelier that did it. Honestly, I never did figure out what their problem was. Anyway, when they were about to go bankrupt, they decided that rock concerts weren't so bad after all.
