This recording was made in early 2002, a few months previous to the recording session for Impaled's Mondo Medicale. It was used as a template for the sound and as a means to experiment with track ordering. The song Raise the Stakes was finished sometime between this demo and the recording for the album and therefore is not present here. The songs Gross Anatomy and Choice cuts were excised to be included on the EP Choice cuts as a way to conclude Impaled's contract with Necropolis Records. There are some notable vocal pattern and riff changes from this demo to the album's final form.

Sean, Raul, and Ross had all but forgotten that these demos existed until ex-guitar player Andrew LaBarre passed them along to us in early 2022, 20 years since they had been recorded. He passed away just months later due to health complications from ALS.

Impaled would like to dedicate the release of these demos to the memory of Andrew LaBarre, an amazing guitarist, engineer, and song writer. Rest in power, Andrew.
