==Additional information==
This is the band's first full-length release in 13 years; the last LP, ''Linger Ficken' Good'', was issued in 1993. The LP's original working title was "Purple Head" and was originally due in 2004. "Caliente (Dark Entries)," a cover of sorts of "Dark Entries" by [[Bauhaus (band)|Bauhaus]], with vocalist [[Gibby Haynes]], was featured on the [[Saw II (soundtrack)|soundtrack]] to ''[[Saw II]]'' in 2005. A new track, "RevColution Medley", has displaced "Fire Engine" as the first track from the promo on the album, moving it to track 5.

Oddly enough, the same two members of [[Cheap Trick]] also appear on ''[[Cocked & Loaded]]'' by [[L.A. Guns]]{{Citation needed|date=May 2009}}.

The song "Revolting Cock au Lait" (appeared in the Retail Version of the album) is a mishmash of many songs considered hard rock classics. The intro uses the sampled "stomp-clap" from [[Queen (band)|Queen]]'s "[[We Will Rock You]]" and in the middle there is a simultaneous mashup parodying both the chorus from [[Pink Floyd]]'s "[[Another Brick in the Wall]]" and [[Led Zeppelin]]'s "Immigrant Song", alluding topics like [[masturbation]] ("We don't need some masturbation... aaaaah... Go fuck yourself! We don't need no cock control... aaaah... You fuck yourself!") and [[child sexual abuse]] by [[priest]]s ("Preachers... Leave those kids alone!"). At one point a transposed version of the guitar solo from Led Zeppelin's "Stairway To Heaven" can be heard. Also, the melody used for this song (chords and compases{{typo help inline|reason=similar to compasses|date=August 2021}}) are based on [[Jimi Hendrix]]'s "[[Purple Haze]]". "RevColution Medley" is a shorter version of "Revolting Cock au Lait", before the parody of this [[Pink Floyd]] song.
