It's the first album with new material since Lost in America, and includes two original Pavlov's Dog members: their long-standing frontman David Surkamp and drummer Mike Safron. The album is dedicated to the band's original violinist Siegfried Carver[15] who died in 2009.[16]

The album's cover depicts David Surkamp's father and uncle at a young age[17] and the dog from Pavlov's Dog debut album Pampered Menial cover.
