Album notes

The first seven tracks appeared on I'd Rather Be Flag-Burning in 1995, a 10" split with I Spy. Tracks 1 to 5, and track 7 were recorded and mixed over two days (date unknown) at God of Thunder Studios (a laundry room)[1] by Paul James, Tim Clarke, and Chris Brett. A slightly different version of Track 3 had previously appeared as "Nation States" on the 1996 Fat Wreck Chords compilation Fat Music, Vol. II: Survival of the Fattest, and as "...And We Thought Nation States Were a Bad Idea" on their second studio album, Less Talk, More Rock.

  • Track 8 was recorded during the How to Clean Everything sessions, but did not appear on the album. It was included on the 1994 Fat Wreck compilation Fat Music for Fat People, with a slightly different title: "Homophobes Are Just Pissed Cause They Can't Get Laid".
  • Track 9 ("True") is a cover of Concrete Blonde, from the 1987 album Concrete Blonde. It is among the first songs Propagandhi recorded with bassist Todd Kowalski. This recording was included on the 1997 Fat Wreck Chords compilation Fat Music Vol. III: Physical Fatness.
