The album is dedicated to former bass player Chuck Valle, who was killed in 1994.[5] His picture appears on the back page of the CD inlay and a picture of a tattoo inscribed with the words "In Memory of Chuck" appears on the jewel case inlay.
Production
The album was produced by Daniel Rey. He also wrote "Green Bud".
The personnel differed from previous efforts, but Jimmy G's vocals still provided the sound's basis.[6]
Critical reception
The Washington Post wrote: "There's no evidence that the Law's energy is flagging; Todd Youth's guitar churns as fast as ever, and Jimmy G's vocals are just as raw and urgent. Still, the concept is a little tired."[7]
