Their early influences included a wide variety of bands, such as Soundgarden, Dag Nasty, Minor Threat, Black Flag,[3] Hüsker Dü, Soul Asylum, Iron Maiden, the Beatles, Misfits, 7 Seconds, Melvins, Screaming Trees, Beat Happening, and Nirvana.
The remaining four tracks were slightly remixed from their previous release, Seaweed; thus, angering their former label Tupelo.
Also in 1992, the band made an in-studio appearance on the radio program hosted by John Peel.
[8] Four contained the single "Kid Candy", which was most prominently featured in a season four episode of the TV show Beavis and Butt-head.
"Losing Skin" was also released as a single from this album, and would be more prominently featured on the soundtrack for the video game NHL 2K7 13 years later.
[9] Seaweed also got another shot at exposure, as their cover of Fleetwood Mac's hit song "Go Your Own Way" was featured in the 1994 film Clerks and its soundtrack, despite being recorded a year earlier.
Despite the label's initial large financial advance and marketing promises, the album did not sell well as expected.
The label was putting out albums by Seaweed's friends such as Superchunk and Neutral Milk Hotel, and so the transition was seamless.
A third song was later released in the summer of 2014, "Rusty Ranch", on a compilation titled MAWP Comp Volume 1.
Frontman Stauffer later worked as a nurse in Northern California and said in an interview that "It’s hard to play a show because it hurts me physically.
"[13] Since Seaweed's albums spanned different labels, the only release to see a reissue to date is 1999's Actions and Indications, which also included three unreleased bonus tracks as a download.
