Album information

The album cover is a parody of a Mexican magazine called ¡Alarma!, which emphasizes sensational crime stories and has previously been banned—like the band, in certain instances, for its gruesome content/pictures.

The song "Asesino" is by Brujeria, not the artist Asesino. This song features Tony Campos from the band Static-X.
