Personnel

coL played drums on "Poultry Head", drum programming, guitars, vocals on "New Trumpets Of Time".

On "New Trumpets of Time" Pink only played bass and synthesizers on the track. The song was originally created with coL for his album, but because coL took a long time to compile this album; Pink really thought the track should be heard, and he placed it on his record.[4][5]
