It has been said that the cover features a collage of two medical photographs superimposed. One photo is an open throat, probably diseased, while the other is a cancerous cell, taken with microscope.[2]
The album is often associated with industrial and experimental music.[3]
A music video was made for Lick Forever Dog.[4]
