This is the first Tear Garden album without Dwayne Goettel, with his death (and the end of Skinny Puppy) a year previously. The album tends to carry a less electronic and more somber tone to it overall as cEvin Key and others changed instrumental priorities following Goettel's death and their respective moods reflecting that death. Another member of The Legendary Pink Dots, Niels Van Hoornblower, appears on this album.

According to Edward Ka-Spel, the album was intended to be called To Be an Angel Blind, the Cripple Soul Divide, but all copies are erroneously titled as "Crippled".

gollark: This was discussed on the esolangs server a bit back: yes, floats are nice because they're fast and all, but "don't report errors unless explicitly asked for" and "reserve piles of values for nan" seems stupid.
gollark: I don't like it much either.
gollark: Fun fact: Python package management is evil.
gollark: Probably uselessly half the time, but you know.
