Some copies of the disc have "Intro" mislabelled as "Infest". Also, "Intro" has originally been the intro to the song "Pollution" as can be heard on the "Pollution" demo.

The hidden track "Blind" is actually a remake of a song on Mental Aquaducts.

The final song on the album, "Everything", is actually just one big jam session that was recorded. Also, apparently the band was playing for an additional 5 minutes before they started recording.
