Trivia

• The band demoed 18 tracks for inclusion on the album in one day at Jacob's studios in Farnham. These included two tracks which had been demoed for the first album and not made the cut: "Stupid" and "Approaching by Stealth", the latter of which was later re-recorded by Sam Bell, who'd also engineered the demos, for inclusion on the vinyl release of the "Keep It To Yourself" single.
• The band and the production team (Chris Sheldon, engineer Ryan and studio owner Ian), as well as a few guests managed to drink 750 cups of tea during the five week recording. When it was revealed that the band were only thirty or so cups away from drinking the whole of the third box of 250 teabags, a mammoth tea-drinking mission was undertaken.
• Martin, who played cello on the album, also played guitar in Therapy?.
• The band's record company asked them if they would record the song "Blitzkrieg" during the album sessions if they had enough time, even though it had not made the final selection of 13 tracks that the band had agreed on. The band agreed, but ran out of time when a whole week was lost, spent re-recording guitar parts that were found to be out of tune. Up until that time, the recording had been running ahead of schedule.
• A blamethrower is a special kind of non-lethal weapon invented by Dr. A. Heller in the film Mystery Men.
• A VFVD T-shirt can be seen in the Hadouken! video for "Liquid Lives", and on the Fightstar "One Day Son, This Will All Be Yours" DVD, worn by drummer Omar Abidi.
