Album information
The album is considered a departure from Voivod's previous progressive metal style, with the band adopting elements of industrial metal while "they pollute their avant-garde punk metal"[5] and death metal growls within a heavy metal framework.[1]
The CD release is notable for including multimedia tracks in CD-ROM format, which was a novelty at the time.
