It includes four of the eight songs from their Rocking the Forest EP, and eight of the nine songs from their Sebadoh vs Helmet EP. Both EPs were released in Europe on Domino/20/20 Recordings in early 1992. Eric Gaffney contributed the majority of the album artwork, and the title, which was lifted for a SPIN article on Nirvana in 1994, and was taken for a book title of the same name, by Matt Bissonnette.

gollark: What do you mean you're looking for a white color?
gollark: Maybe you should find a better geological engineering course somehow.
gollark: The energy requirement scales quadratically, if I remember right.
gollark: Also, I may be missing something, but this "Explosively pumped flux compression generator" is apparently a one-shot device. One which generates a brief pulse of electricity to accelerate your projectile from some chemical energy. Isn't this just an inefficient gun with a bunch of indirection?
gollark: ... a NDA? Is this not just a personal project or something?
