There are two different vinyl releases from Lovepump United: standard and limited. The standard has two black vinyl discs with the second being single-sided. On the unused side is an etching similar to the album artwork. The limited edition is the same except the first disc is colored with a transparent splatter design, and is limited to 400 copies.
This is the last Genghis Tron album with vocalist Mookie Singerman. This would be the band's last studio album until the release of Dream Weapon in 2021.
