One of my favorite things about this album happens @ 5:11 of A.T.O.M. (track 6). The drummer and I threw together this impromptu jam about the disheartening state of commercial punk in the mid-nineties. Fully tongue-in-cheek, it repurposes the pre-fab 70s bubblegum punk of The Monks and cross-references it with the "fuck the cops" attitude of The Exploited. I thought it was kinda poignant but ultimately it was just funny.
