Additional notes
Recorded and mixed at Systems Two, Brooklyn, NY.
Remastered August 2000 at Sterling Sound, NYC.

A compilation of old tracks (most of which are shortened edits) and new material.

"Cat scratch lead" on "Stay Out of My Dreams" by Paul Bento.

An "edited" clean-version CD is also available; this version omits "It's Never Enough" and "Unsuccessfully Coping with the Natural Beauty of Infidelity" and includes "Gravitational Constant: G = 6.67 x 10^-8 cm^3 gm^-1 sec^-2".

The cover is an image of the Coney Island "Parachute Jump."

Track 6 is a cover of the Black Sabbath song with the same title, with new lyrics by Peter Steele, loosely the other side of the original song's story.

The back cover reads "Better to be hated for who you are than loved for who you're not", attributed to Phlogiston Verdigris. It's actually a paraphrase of a quote by french novelist Andre Gide.
