Tad ran into legal trouble after the man and woman featured on the album cover saw the record and sued the band. The cover was an altered photo, the original of which was found in a photo album purchased from a thrift store.[4]
Rolling Stone ranked this album 31st on their list of the 50 Greatest Grunge Albums.[5]
Singles
"Jinx" and "Jack Pepsi" were the singles released from this album. Pepsi filed a lawsuit against the band for using their logo on the single "Jack Pepsi".[6] The song itself was, in the words of music journalist Roy Wilkinson, "the true story of how Tad and his mate tanked up on Jack Daniels and cola before taking a pick-up onto an ice-covered lake — tempting fate ... and sure enough, they crashed through".[7]
"Jinx" was featured in the Cameron Crowe film Singles (1992), although it is not included in the official soundtrack album.[8]
