Helmet and T-Ray produced all of the album's songs, except for "Milquetoast," which was produced by Butch Vig. Rolling Stone would go on to hail it as "one of Helmet's most beloved albums, as well as a landmark of mid-Nineties metal" and note, "Tracks like 'Wilma's Rainbow,' 'I Know' and 'Milquetoast' (which had appeared earlier that year, as 'Milktoast,' on the soundtrack to the Brandon Lee film The Crow) continued the band's riff-as-power-tool aesthetic, while also expanding on it...exploring jazz ('Beautiful Love'), blues ('Sam Hell') and oddball funk ('The Silver Hawaiian')." Five tracks on the bonus disc: Flushings, Thick, Pariah, Biscuits for Smut Mutt Mix, Biscuits for Smut Pooch mix. Baby Blue colored vinyl, plus etching on side 2 of LP2.
