AllMusic[2]

The single "Jessie," released in 1993, became a minor hit. Other singles from the album included "Lolita" in 1992 and "Sleeping Bag" and "Couldn't Know" in 1993.

The songs "Jessie," "Pansy," and "The Bridge" were featured in the video game Road Rash for the Sega Saturn, Sega CD, Windows, PlayStation, and 3DO.

In 2015 the album was re-released by Cherry Red Records Ltd. with all the b-sides from the singles as bonus tracks as well as extensive liner notes and a slightly different artwork (the band logo and the title are smaller).[3]

gollark: WRONG!
gollark: PotatOS is able to make omnidisks somewhat unduplicateable, *but* that only works because their value comes from being cryptographically signed and able to run in privileged mode on potatOS - you can run them anywhere else, it just won't be useful.
gollark: Anyway, you can't really copy-protect software in CC. At all. The best you can do is use a bunch of obfuscation techniques together to make it mildly hard to do anything with it, and add some code to check computer ID or something.
gollark: I really ought to move to osmarks.net or something for critical services like the potatOS backend servers.
gollark: Freenom require you to renew your domain 2 weeks before it expires, lest they take it away and charge money.
