Background

This album was the first that band had recorded in five years. During that time the band almost disbanded; however, this album marked a comeback. It is a collection of re-recordings of some of the band's more well-known tracks, along with two brand new ones, "Crossover Sucks" and "Shoot Charlton Heston".
Of the 22 tracks on the album, seven come from the band's first two records. Five come from Sudden Death Overtime, four more 16 Valve Hate, and the rest are made up from tracks on "Old Tyme Hardcore", "Unconsciousness", and "Blast Furnace".
The CD included live video performances of their songs "Step On It" / "Chip on My Shoulder" and "Olde Time Hardcore" / "Silence" with "Old Tyme Hardcore". Along with this it included a collection of flyers for the band's various performances and extensive liner notes including a booklet that contained the history of the band.
