The album made it to #4 on the Japanese albums chart.^[3]

Album cover

The CD album cover is similar to the cover of Vincebus Eruptum by Blue Cheer.^[2] The cover of the vinyl release is a parody of The Who's Odds & Sods album. Rather than the band's helmets reading "R O C K," they spelled out "F U C K"; this did not stop the album cover from being advertised on billboards in Japan.^[4]
