Notes

  • The first track from the album that Psapp made public on their MySpace page was "I Want That." It was later replaced by "Part Like Waves."
  • The first video to be released was "The Monster Song." The video was made in conjunction with Stephen Irwin, features artwork created by Durant, and can be seen here.
  • The title of "Mister Ant" was taken from an incident in which Durant's sister, a teacher, gave her name as "Miss Durant," to which a student replied, "Why are you called 'Mister Ant' when you're a woman?"[2]
  • "Homicide" is essentially an extended version of the underlying sounds heard during the outro to Psapp's recording of David Shrigley and Psapp's "Sad Song."
