Nixon's first album since splitting with Skid Roper, and released by Enigma Records, the album was seen as potentially Nixon's break-out album but the record label's demise due to financial issues dashed any chance of success.[6]
The album includes humorous commentary on targets such as soft rock ("Don Henley Must Die"), the legal profession ("Destroy All Lawyers"), politics, and Shane MacGowan's teeth.[2][5] Featuring a band of established musicians from other bands and produced by Jim Dickinson, the album's music was considered to be stronger than Nixon's previous releases.[2][3]
