The album debuted at number 14 on the Canadian Albums Chart for the week ending on October 26, 2003. At the 2004 Western Canadian Music Awards, the album won in the 'Outstanding Rap/Hip-Hop Recording' category.[4]
Many regard it as their most mainstream-sounding release to date, and a strong negative reaction to direction the album took from the group's core fan base resulted in them discontinuing shipments of the album after its initial release. The album artwork was drawn by Spawn creator Todd McFarlane, who had directed one of their music videos. The song "All Night" was featured in the 2003 video game SSX 3.
