The band created promotional music videos for "Scene of the Crime", "Fast Forward",[2] and "Boxes",[3] which were featured on Trinity Broadcasting Network's music video show Real Videos at the time of the album's release.
In a 2009 interview, frontman Loyd Boldman said "we put a 'stop-groove' at the end of Side Two that would 'catch' the vinyl record and wouldn't allow it to eject on an automatic turntable. If you picked up the needle and set it down again on the other side of the stop-groove, you’d hear a packet of computer code that could be deciphered by a Commodore 64, the most popular computer of that time. If you used a cassette drive, the Commodore would show you lyrics and graphics and some facts about the album."[4] In 2019, it was demonstrated that the contents were a short BASIC program displaying a quote by Albert Einstein and a quote by Jesus.[5][6]
Perfection of means and confusion of ends seem to characterize our age.
"Boxes" fades into a verse of the early 20th-century hymn "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus", sung by producer Jon Phelps. This track is listed on the inner sleeve but not on the record label or album jacket.
