Background edit

Unlike previous studio albums by TBF, Pistaccio Metallic was released by Dallas Records. It is also the first studio album that feature new drummer Janko Novoselić.[1] He also played on their 2010 live album Perpetuum Fritule. For the first time TBF recorded a studio album outside of their home town Split. The album was recorded in Novo Mesto in Slovenia at the RSL Studio. It is also the first time TBF produced a studio album themselves without an external producer. The album got its name from the band's inside joke about the color of the guitar - however, Badovinac claimed in an interview that TBF always creates "wacky" album name, which is often nonsensical.[2]
