* AlternateAlbumCover: The original release of ''America's Least Wanted'' depicts the band's mascot as the Art/StatueOfLiberty, FlippingTheBird instead of holding a torch. After several major retailers objected to the crude imagery, the band put together a mocking alternate cover in which their mascot is BoundAndGagged.
* BoundAndGagged: On the censored cover for ''America's Least Wanted'', the band's mascot has his body tied in rope, his mouth covered by a rag, his hand wrapped in duct tape, and his legs shackled by a ball and chain, mocking the objections retailers raised towards the uncensored cover.



* SpecialGuest: Rob Halford of Music/JudasPriest does backing vocals on "Goddamn Devil" from their debut album.
