The album was released when the band members of Eugenius consisted of Eugene Kelly (guitar and vocals), Gordon Keen (guitar), Raymond Boyle (bass) and Roy Lawrence (drums), however, most of the songs were recorded prior to Boyle's and Lawrence's introduction to the band, and therefore these members do not appear much on the album.
The tracks "Bed-In" and "Buttermilk" were released as promotional singles in support of the album, each with accompanying music videos.
Critical reception
Trouser Press wrote: "Calmly applying his Robyn Hitchcocky voice to stellar songs that roll even music (a raucous catchy pop rush somewhere between the Byrds and Stooges) and odd lyrics, Kelly and his three bandmates make a merry mess that is as sensually satisfying as it is delightful."[7]
"Wow!", "Bed-In" and "Wannabee" were previously released on Eugenius' debut EP (released when the band was called "Captain America"). The EP also featured a B-Side titled "God Bless Les Paul" which along with a cover of "I Won't Try" by Midway Still was featured as an additional bonus track on the 2003 expanded re-issue. This re-issue also included a companion disc of radio sessions entitled Tireless Wireless, which features various radio sessions from 1992, the same that were featured on the EP It Ain't Rocket Science, It's Eugenius!.
"Flame On", "Buttermilk" and "Indian Summer" were previously released on Eugenius' "Flame On" EP, (also released when the band was called "Captain America").
Tracks 1-4 of Tireless Wireless were recorded for Mark Goodier and the BBC and were first broadcast on 3 August 1992.
Tracks 5 and 6 were recorded at WHFS in Baltimore in 1993.
