Producer Magoo later said the studio, "was [owned by] this guy [who was in the band] Carabao. He was described to us as the local, Thai, Bruce Springsteen. He had this compound in outer Bangkok. We'd drive there and it's in the middle of all these slums. There were wild chickens running around everywhere. There were open sewers and stuff like that." At the ARIA Music Awards of 1996, the album won two awards; Best Alternative Album and Breakthrough album. In 2012, Regurgitator performed the entire album along with Unit on the Australian RetroTech tour. (en)
