== Background == The album's basic tracking was conducted at Poonshead Studio in Fremantle, Western Australia in one day. The studio was recommended to the band by Perth band Turnstyle, who were playing a festival with Custard on the same weekend. Drummer Glenn Thompson mixed the album at Horses of Australia Studio Marrickville.
The album cover features the studio's Roland SH-3A synthesizer played by Cowboy John, a drifter who frequented the studio. He can also be heard on recordings by the band Pond.
