* {{Instrumentals}}: "Growler". This kickstarted the tradition of the last song on a Space album being a Franny Griffiths instrumental...at least, until ''Suburban Rock 'n' Roll''.

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Most of the album is hip-hop flavoured AlternativeRock. The final track "Growler" is straight-up Techno.
* SpidersAreScary / [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Spiders?]]: The album cover features a bathtub full of tarantulas. According to the band, the picture was chosen [[FaceYourFears to help arachophobic listeners overcome their fears]].

* RearrangeTheSong: "Dark Clouds" and "Charlie M" have both had this treatment. The version of "Charlie M" that Space play live is the demo version, which is much faster than the album version and starts with the 'ooga chaka' chant from "Hooked On A Feeling". Meanwhile, "Dark Clouds" has rarely been played as it is on the album. In 2004, the band played a garage rock version; in 2012 and 2013, they tagged on "La Bamba" at the end; and Tommy transposes the song down a minor third for his solo sets (the band also played this version at their 2016 Christmas gig).
