Production
The album was recorded in Memphis and New York City.[4] "Christina" is a cover of the Brownie McGhee song.[5]
Critical reception
The Toronto Sun called the album "supremely filthy," writing that "it makes Jon Spencer sound like Pat Boone."[8] Miami New Times deemed it "a 34-minute slugfest that highlights the band's blues chops ... and showcases their ability to pulverize a riff into fine powder."[4] The Commercial Appeal noted that "for manic deranged 'blooze' with a healthy dose of unleashed libido, the Oblivians are truth in packaging."[7]
