  • "Better Than Shit" samples the opening line from N.W.A.'s "Straight Outta Compton".
  • "El Stupido" samples dialogue from American Me.
  • "For What It's Worth" uses a quote from Christopher McDonald as Shooter McGavin in Happy Gilmore.
  • The album cover features an altered still image from the 1943 film I Walked with a Zombie.[3]

Band Manifesto

Reacting to turmoil in the Bay Area music scene, the band wrote a call to action that was included in the album's lyric sheet: "We are the new school, its up to us to change the way things are, to make things better. Fuck separatism, we have to unite at all costs. Unconditional acceptance of people into our lives and scenes is the only way. Race, age, sex, religion, what you wear, what music you like, who you fuck...none of it matters. The adult society infested with snobbery and violence should bear no reflection on our underground. Instead of turning our backs to the new kids wanting to learn about our scenes, we should teach them how it should be. Nobody was born cool and nobody is better than the rest. We can do it, all we have to do is try...otherwise the cycle will continue and we too will get caught in it, just like so many of those who came before us. There are too many boundaries, too many walls, too many locked hearts, and too many closed minds. It's up to us to cross the boundaries, to break the walls, to unlock the hearts, and to open the minds."[4]
