Summary

This album expanded on the stylistic change that had begun with X Marks the Pedwalk's previous stand-alone single, Facer. In an issue of Sideline magazine, André Schmechta commented: "Many fans were not happy with my [X Marks the Pedwalk's] new style! But on the other hand many listeners also rated the new stuf [sic] as the best XMTP work ever...For us the most important thing is to do the music we wanted to do and secondly that the "normal" audience can approach XMTP..."
