The title track, over sixty minutes long, was a live recording for a radio broadcast on Radio 5 VPRO's De Avonden. The other nine tracks on the album are one-minute tracks.
Critical reception
The A.V. Club gave the album a mixed review, describing the title track as intermittently "kind of cute" but also "impossible to listen to in its entirety."[1] The Austin Chronicle called it "precisely the sort of ambitious, sprawling project that would send all but the most adventurous label honchos into cardiac arrest."[3]
