The album includes three tracks which appeared on their rare independent 1980 release, Mutant Moments.

The album has received criticism for not being comprehensive enough, excluding several rare cuts which have appeared on previous bootlegs.

David Ball, the keyboardist, comments on the album in the liner notes.

The album includes a cover version of the song "Paranoid", originally recorded by British heavy metal band Black Sabbath.

Tracks were recorded in bedrooms and the polytechnic art department studio in a very basic fashion between 1978 and 1980.
