Matricide and The Sorrowed Man had both been previously recorded under the titles Mother Earth and Forever, respectively, in a 1990 demo by Sanctuary, as well as with their current titles in the 1992 Nevermore demo entitled Utopia.

It was their first album to feature Pat O'Brien on rhythm guitars and also the first in which Van Williams played all drum tracks.
