Notes

* "The Owl and the Pussycat' is a musical adaptation of the poem by Edward Lear.
* "Astronaut" is a reworked version of the song of the same name that appeared on "Close Cover Before Striking".
* The album was recorded live to analog two-track, with minimal overdubbing done in post-production. In comparison to the ornate production on other Luna albums, along with the aforementioned lead vocals by Sean Eden, this gave Luna's final album a quite different feel in comparison to their other albums.
