100,000 copies were shipped of this album. Bad Religion's' guitarist Mr. Brett said

"it was time to change, I was bored (...) we did it in a different studio, but as far as the songwriting, it was a deliberate effort to try something different."

It was recorded almost live in the studio, because Brett had moved Westbeach to larger premises, and for the first time, the entire band could play in the studio at the same time.
