[6] Wire Train started work on the tracks in a cabin close to Yosemite National Park, and finished them in Bottrell's Toad Hall recording studio.
[7] The Chicago Tribune wrote: "Wire Train sounds too much like too many other modern rock outfits to be cited for iconoclastic genius and originality, but the California quartet does an exceptional job of delivering a variety of immediately accessible, funky pop hooks with a minimum of dull filler.
"[11] The State praised the "chunkier guitars and complex rhythms," writing that "this is Wire Train's most ambitious work to date.
"[10] The Capital Times opined that "the wittiness of the lyrics ('Jesus and Mohammed were just a couple of regular guys who made a lot of good friends after they died') is supported by consistently compelling music.
"[12] All tracks are written by Kevin Hunter, Jeff Trott, Anders Rundblad, and Brian MacLeod except where noted.Credits are adapted from the album's liner notes.
