The original release was credited to "Ben Weasel And His Iron String Quartet", however the Asian Man cover credits the album just to Ben Weasel.^[4] Ben Weasel is implied to be a part of the titular Iron String Quartet, as only three other people were featured on the album: Dan Andriano (of Alkaline Trio), Mike Kennerty, and Chris Gaylor (both of the All-American Rejects).^[5] Kennerty is also the album's producer.^[6]
