It is the first Monster Magnet album to feature lead guitarist Ed Mundell, who replaced founding member John McBain in 1992.

It was recorded and mixed by Steve Rosenthal at New York's "The Magic Shop" studio in October, 1992, with all original material composed by the band's lead vocalist Dave Wyndorf.

The album fared poorly commercially, largely due to its release coinciding with the advent of the grunge era, which ultimately resulted in a dramatic decline in the popularity of heavy metal in general.

According to singer Dave Wyndorf, Superjudge began as something of a concept album, but the only surviving part is the band's cover of Willie Dixon's "Evil (Is Going On)".

A lot of times, I'll have one foot in reality-something going on in Belgium or whatever-and the other in what I wish could happen-planets, spaceships-and try to fit them together and make sense out of it.
