"Le Massacre du Printemps" is Tillison's version of the Igor Stravinsky piece The Rite Of Spring. "Everyman's Forgotten Monday" was originally on the album "Lifecycle" by Gold Frankincense & Diskdrive. "I Wanna Be A Chick" was originally recorded in 2008 for Down and Out in Paris and London. Originally written for release on Not as Good as the Book, the controversial epic "Live On Air" is based on the events of the 7 July 2005 London bombings.[3]
