It features a different sound than Finger Eleven's subsequent albums, with rock, pop, funk, and metal influences. The album produced three singles, all of which had videos released. The name of the album comes from a dog with a missing eye that the band found on the side of the road. They gave it the name Chutney. The album peaked at No. 45 on the RPM Canadian Albums Chart.
