The album makes heavy use of the Fairlight CMI, a musical synthesizer popularized in the 1980s.[4] This creates a very electronic sound that persists through every track.

"Confusion" was released as a single with "Eyes of a Gypsy" as the B-side.[5]

In 2019, the album was reissued with bonus tracks and a new cover art.[4]
