Art Alexakis, Greg Eklund and Craig Montoya share the writing credit, and Alexakis produced it, with Michael W. Douglass, who recorded it, and Brian Malouf, who mixed it, as co-producers.

It gave the band singles including "Santa Monica" and "Heroin Girl", topped the Heatseekers chart in January 1996, went platinum that May, and by the end of 2001 its US sales stood at 1,190,000.
