It has 11 songs, two of which are less than twenty seconds long. It contains appearances from such artists as Saul Williams, Maximum Bob, Efrem Schulz and Serj Tankian.

The album includes the song "We Are One", which is one of the few music videos he has ever made, the song also appears on the horror series soundtrack Masters of Horror and also in one episode. "Three Fingers" also appears on the soundtrack of the horror movie Saw II. The last song from the album, the instrumental piece "Nottingham Lace" (previously released on Buckethead's official website) closes the album, and is one of Buckethead's most popular pieces, often played in concerts along with "Jordan" known from the game Guitar Hero II and "Soothsayer (Dedicated to Aunt Suzie)" from the album Crime Slunk Scene.

Buckethead promoted the album release with his "Disney World to Disney Land Tour" in October and November 2005.

A re-issue of this album was released in April 2008 with an additional song called "Shen Chi". The bonus track refers to a type of energy in Feng Shui.

The track "Waiting Hare" is often mislabeled as "Waiting Here", even though the lyrics to the song clearly say "waiting here".

Famous quotes containing the words enter the, enter and/or chicken:

    They enter the bare wood, drawn
    by a clear-obscure summons they fear
    and have no choice but to heed.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Those who cannot understand how to put their thoughts on ice should not enter into the heat of debate.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Sometimes I lifted a chicken that warn’t roosting comfortable, and took him along. Pap always said, take a chicken when you get a chance, because if you don’t want him yourself you can easy find somebody that does, and a good deed ain’t ever forgot. I never see papa when he didn’t want the chicken himself, but that is what he used to say, anyway.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
