Release
The album was produced by Eric Drew Feldman and Tripping Daisy. Songs on this album included radio hit "Sonic Bloom". Artwork was created by Tim DeLaughter. It was the first of two albums (the second being the band's swan-song, Tripping Daisy (2000)) to feature Ben Curtis on drums; he would later go on to form The Secret Machines and School of Seven Bells.
The album expanded the band's sound, ditching most of their "90s Grunge sound" for a more layered "Neo-Psychedelic" sound similar to Clouds Taste Metallic-era Flaming Lips. The album was critically acclaimed, but sold poorly due to lack of support and marketing from Island Records. The album is now out of print. In November 2020, the album was later reissued on vinyl and cassette.
"Indian Poker Pt. 2 & 3" (a combined cover of the Brainiac songs from the album Hissing Prigs in Static Couture, 1996) was "dedicated to the late Timmy Taylor and his band, Brainiac" in the album's liner notes.
