Trivia

• In 2006, Dropkick Murphys covered the song "I've Got My Friends" during several live performances.
• This is the last Ducky Boys record to feature original guitarist Mike Marsden, as well as the only to feature second guitarist Mike O'Leary.
• O'Leary was still in high school and unable to tour in support of the album. This led to James Lynch filling in on the road. Lynch eventually joined Dropkick Murphys as their guitarist.
