Having sold over one million copies and achieving platinum status, this would become the group's most successful release and featured such hits as "Nobody's Real" and "When Worlds Collide".

Although it doesn't tell a specific story, the songs have a cohesive theme, primarily oriented around campy Atomic Age science fiction reminiscent of the 1950s, coupled with nihilistic, apocalyptic messages and paranoid, cyberpunk imagery.

Music critics and fans alike compare Powerman 5000 frontman Spider One's fixation on bygone science fiction with older brother Rob Zombie's obsession with B-movie horror themes.

Both seem to share an affection for campy entertainment that influence their musical output, though Spider has since abandoned science fiction as the inspiration for Powerman 5000's sound and image.

However, it also includes a cover of The Cars' "Good Times Roll" and "Watch the Sky for Me", a moody, lounge song with its entire melody taken from the track "One More Kiss, Dear" by Vangelis for the Blade Runner soundtrack.
