The album artwork features a fictional dictionary definition for the term Guitar Mashing which was in part derived from the official Oxford English Dictionary definitions for the words Guitar and Mash but heavily distorted for use as a propaganda tool to assist in marketing the album's unusual genre.

The album was recorded and mixed at Acer Studios in Greater Manchester by Tim Scott and was mastered by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road Studios, London.
