AllMusic[2]

The album's closing track "Prey" is actually a few seconds of "Average People" which repeats for 22 minutes, gradually becoming louder.[3] On the vinyl release of the album, the song (instead of being stretched out to 22 minutes) is contained within a locked groove; which as a result makes the 2-second “song” loop infinitely until the listener lifts the record player’s needle.

A remastered version that includes the 1996 mini-album Kill Trend Suicide was released in 2006.[4] It is Brutal Truth's last album to feature Brent McCarthy.
