It was the last studio recording to feature drummer and founding member Darrell Sweet before his death in 1999. The album also features guest performances by bassist Pete Agnew's son Lee, who later replaced Sweet as the band's drummer. The album was recorded at the Parkgate studios, Catsfield in East Sussex in 1997. 11 of the 12 tracks were mixed in early 1998, with horns and guitar overdubs added. During the original recording, the Hale-Bopp comet was clearly visible.

The character on the album artwork is known as 'Boogaloo'.

gollark: Wait, why did you read the potatOS... license terms, I think... now?
gollark: Those are purely hypothetical.
gollark: Well, yes, I suppose we do use advanced ideatic/memetic devices to sift hëavserveric discussion and emotion from the noösphere and expand heavserver.
gollark: "Rate at which they create heavserver"/"How often someone declares that they hate 'heavserver' and always avoid it"
gollark: > 'Heavserver' is just 'people being upset', when someone says they're always surrounded by heavserver and they just ignore it, it starts to make sense that their strategy might be backfiring.I feel like this is somewhat inaccurate.
