The album was produced by Englishman Mark Dearnley, who had engineered for acts like AC/DC, Motörhead, the Beat and Haircut One Hundred.[3] The album title has a dual meaning: it refers to making an album and, also, signals that the band had come full circle while covering different musical styles such as hard rock, punk, country, and gospel.[1]
The album contains D-A-D's first and only cover version, "A Horse with No Name" by America, at the request of producer Mark Dearnley.
