* {{Feelies}}: Parodied with ''Daft''. The cover art depicts one of the band's paper masks, with a dotted line and scissor icon around it, seemingly encouraging the buyer to cut the mask out and wear it as their own. However, because the album was never released on LP -- only on CD, cassette, and digitally -- the mask is way too small to practically wear.

** ''In No Sense? Nonsense!'' was designed as an uninterrupted, 41-minute suite, featuring liberal use of FadingIntoTheNextSong. However, while this was easily achievable on CD, limitations of the LP and cassette formats meant that the album had to split itself in half to fit across the two sides. The North American cassette release, however, is able to preserve the intended configuration by storing the full album on one side of tape, even duplicating it on the second to allow auto-reversing decks to play the material ad infinitum.
