The songs on the album demonstrate numerous concepts—one of which, the song "Arsonist", was written about their strong feelings against the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas, which has become well known as a controversial religious organization and hate group.

A music video was released for the song "Aspirations" and was directed by Ian Larson.

Victory Records would later release several vinyl editions of the album.
