The album was recorded at Sleepy Hollow Studios in New York City and produced by band members Sharkey McEwen and Joziah Longo. McEwen also performed the engineering, mixing and mastering.[5] The band started recording the album in late 2001.[6]
Soon after its release, radio exposure for the album was nearly nationwide in the United States.[6]
Thom Jurek of AllMusic called the album sophisticated, mature, poetic, and funny in a tasteful, nonzany—or obvious—way. He said that despite the album's length, "time flies by" while listening to it. Jurek praised Joziah Longo's songwriting as superior to that of Tom Petty whose voice his resembles. He also lauded Sharkey McEwen as "a bloody natural lead guitarist who never overplays". Jurek called Tink Lloyd, who plays cello, piccolo, flute and accordion, a "musician's musician".[7]
All songs written by Joziah Longo.[5]
