A video was made for "Choke".

First of Sepultura's more hardcore influenced albums.
First album without founding member and vocalist/guitar player Max Cavalera.

"Floaters in Mud" is dedicated to Max Cavalera and his wife Gloria Cavalera. The story behind this song comes from when Andreas Kisser went to see a Machine Head show in Phoenix, Arizona, and Max, Gloria and the ex-Sepultura crew were there. When he wanted to greet the crew, they told him that it was not convenient for them because Max and Gloria could get angry.

"F.O.E." stands for Freedom of Expression; a song originally released on the 1971 «Vanishing Point» movie soundtrack and later used as the opening theme for a Brazilian TV show «Globo Repórter».

"Choke (Rough Mix)" was released only on "Radio Kerrang! – Volume 7 The Devil's Jukebox Compilation" (1998).

"Floaters in Mud (Acoustic)" is available only on "Lançamento Nosso de Cada Dia Brazilian Compilation" (1999).

Two early demo versions of "Choke" were recorded before Derrick Green joined the band - one with Chuck Billy (Testament) and the other with Andreas Kisser on vocals. They were published on the Internet. Other demo versions exist, with Marc Grewe (Morgoth), Phil Demmel (Machine Head), Jorge Rosado (Merauder) and Jason "Gong" Jones (Drowning Pool), but they were not released.

First pressing edition was released as a CD in a jewel case housed in a cardcase cover.

A very limited edition contains a CD in a cardsleeve housed in a black cardboard envelope with a red pop up Sepultura tribal S inside + card with release information.

Re-released remastered on Feb-12-2008, together with Nation as Against + Nation 2 CD set.
