"Uaschitschun" tells about the pollution of nature through a Native American's perspective. "Uaschitschun" is a word that the Native Americans used for white males; the nearest translation is "ghost". The ending words were originally spoken by filmmaker Alanis Obomsawin in 1972 and were probably inspired by a famous speech made by Chief Seattle to the whites when they came to buy the lands of Seattle.

"Warchild" is not the same song that appeared in the band's early demos.

"Calico Jack" is about an English pirate of the 18th century. He designed the skull-and-bones pirate flag that was later named the Jolly Roger, which gave the title to the previous album.

Recording information:

- Recorded at Sky Trak Studios, Berlin, Germany in June 1988.
- Mastered at Studio-Nord-Breman, Germany.
- Co-produced by Running Wild.
