The album was recorded by Darren Thompson in Third Avenue and Broadcast Studios in Adelaide . The album is produced by the band itself. The album is distributed worldwide through Shock Records , in Australia and New Zealand through Boomtown Records , the country's largest metal label .

Publication and Success

The album debuted on October 19 of the same year at number 36 on the national album charts and stayed there for a week. In Australia, the album not only got positive reactions. The Australian film company filed a lawsuit against the label demanding that the production of the album be stopped and the already pressed albums removed from the market, as some songs were samples of the films Hot Rod , Happy Gilmore and Contain true romance and thus should have infringed copyright . The band finally took the already pressed albums off the market.
