Details

edit

The album was more political in nature, particularly in the singles "White Limousine" and "Shopping".[citation needed] The album came with a DVD-ROM which included software allowing the listener to remix tracks from the album. An outgrowth of the effort has been a dedicated website for fans to upload remixes of various songs.[citation needed] While there were at least a dozen fan remixes featured, the website was subsequently deactivated.[citation needed]
