(DK's guitarist East Bay Ray redundantly added his own name to the production credits on Manifesto reissues of the album.)

[12] The album's cover features the band's name superimposed over the black-and-white photograph "Hands" by photojournalist Michael Wells.

Wells's photo depicts the emaciated forearm and hand of a malnourished Ugandan child in the palm of a European missionary to highlight the horrors of famine in parts of the African continent during the 1970s and 80s.

Some reissues parse out Melissa Webber's spoken intro to the album from the opening song, "Government Flu", and list it as a separate track entitled "Advice from Christmas Past".

Similarly, Webber's spoken outro after "Moon Over Marin" revisits "Advice from Christmas Past" and is listed as such on some editions of the album.
