The album contains three of the supergroup's most influential members: bassist and producer Bill Laswell, guitarist Buckethead, and drummer Brain. This album was recorded during a live show in Warsaw, Poland and has some resemblance to the band's earlier material, containing elements of 1992's Transmutation (Mutatis Mutandis) and loud, noise-laden parts reminiscent of 1994's Sacrifist. Besides Laswell, Buckethead and Brain, the album also contains contributions from turntablists Mix Master Mike and PhonosycographDISK.

The album opens with "Initiation", a 20-minute turntable epic that mixes albums like Snoop's Murder Was the Case with kung-fu movie samples.
