Trivia

*The song title "Camilla Rhodes" is a reference to the David Lynch film "Mulholland Dr."
*On the back cover of the reissue, the song title for Mordecai is spelled as "Mordecia" twice.
*The final track, The Need for Repetition, is actually 6:42, followed by about 4½ minutes of silence. After the silence, there is a hidden track called "The Man Land", which goes for the rest of the track.
