The album was a product of recreational producing and songwriting undertaken by Koch and Wilson that began around [[1992]], and continued as the band toured through the 90's. The songs are far more bizarre and goofy than those found on Karlophone or [[The Special Goodness]] (the solo band of Wilson), consistently incorporating gibberish, nonsensical rap, and toilet humor, along with far more abrasive and synth-heavy instruments. The band labelled the music as "Black Metal" on their MySpace page, however this descriptor is not accurate, and was very likely a joke. | The album was a product of recreational producing and songwriting undertaken by Koch and Wilson that began around [[1992]], and continued as the band toured through the 90's.
