About
The album appears to have been conceived out of extreme suffering whilst undergoing an excruciating passage through the american medical system. It has strong references to mental illness, whether imposed or real.

Which is a first generation anti-psychotic that has been discontinued/replaced by other assorted poisons in several countries. However, continues to be widely used due to being cheaper and its quick sedative/zombiefying effect that considerably reduces the effort medical workers must invest into helping/treating patients. The inlay of the record contains a mock-like level .
