''Lysol'' was originally going to just be called ''Lysol'', but as it turns out, the name was [[UsefulNotes/{{Trademark}} a registered trademark]], so the album was recalled and black ink or electric tape covered the offending word, and the album was made a self-titled album. Originally, fans could peel off the tape or rub off the ink, however doing this now would only damage the record. A 2014 vinyl reissue re-titled the album as ''Lice-All'', which is of course pronounced exactly the same as the original title.

** ''The Bootlicker'' has the gimmick of eschewing distorted guitars for an entire album, which brings out more of a PsychedelicRock feel - some critics even compared the album to funk or jazz due to the more prominent use of bass guitar.

* WildHair: The signature look of Buzz Osborne - he's the one in the top right of the page image. A common joke among the fanbase (especially on Website/YouTube) is that he [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons "looks like Sideshow Bob and laughs like Krusty the Clown"]]. Possibly also the reason the whole band are depicted as off-brand [[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_doll Troll dolls]] in the AnimatedMusicVideo for "Electric Flower".

there's no vocals on the preston ep outside of sampled dialogue from movies (namely apocalypse now) or field recordings. it's pretty much instrumental music.

* TitlePlease: A rare non-television example: ''Lysol'' doesn't list its tracks on any official version of the album (not helped by the whole thing being mastered as one track on CD releases)--only a test pressing of the LP version gave away the track titles (albeit lumping both [[Music/AliceCooper "Second Coming" and "Ballad of Dwight Fry"]] under the latter name).

This is difficult to discern on "Bride Of Crankenstein" because Pinkus manages to imitate Buzz Osborne almost perfectly.
