Overview


The track list is slightly different for the US version. "Supernatural" and "Ride the Bullet" were presented in re-recorded versions, which later appeared on the band's second album Massive Luxury Overdose. The song "My Army of Lovers" was also included on that album.

The track "Viva La Vogue" was used in the soundtrack of the comedy film Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead.

The track "Birds of Prey" is a faithful rendition of the first section of the original "Birds of Prey", the first track on the United Artists 1976 album release New Nation, by Roderick Falconer.

The album was first planned to be released only in Scandinavia, but in the winter of 1990/91 when the band performed on the Super Channel show, 40 million people in Japan watched them and the album was released there too. After four months, the album was still in the top 50 in Japan.[1]

A remastered version of the album was released in 2006.
