AllMusic[1]

The album cover by Wes Benscoter is a parody of the cover of the Pink Floyd album Atom Heart Mother.[2][3] The cover, which depicts a cow defecating flesh and blood, was deemed grotesque by many retailers and they refused to carry it unless it was changed. The cover was edited, removing the cow, and leaving just a barren wasteland.[4]

The album's opening track "Scatology Domine" (the title of which is also a Pink Floyd reference, in this case to the song "Astronomy Domine") is a cover of the opening of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.
