Production


The band recorded the album in London in the fall of 1988, the producer was Owen Paul. They also had a gig at the Greyhound Club, which the members of Der Zibet also attended.[4] London made a lasting impression on Buck-Tick, especially Sakurai Atsushi, who felt that the local music scene was more accepting of darker, more serious music than the Japanese one.[4] The album marks a turn in the band's career towards a darker style.[5]
