This compilation is subtitled "another collection of Canadian punk rock covers," and that's exactly what it is. Not all of the bands doing the covering are Canadian, but 100% of the source material is. The album's liner notes say the tracks are a mix of "obscure gems that are near impossible to find" and "others [that have] been tastefully reissued and [are] readily available". "This was and is," they go on to say, "nothing more than a light hearted romp through the past. Take it as anything more and you take music and punk rock way too seriously. Have fun!" Spoken like a true Canadian!

"Truck Stop Nun," originally by Da Slyme ("Newfoundland's First Punk Rock Band"), is performed here by The Von Zippers of Calgary. "Tits On The Beach" - every bit as gloriously stoopid as you'd expect a song named "Tits On The Beach" to be - was originally by Rude Norton of Vancouver, and is covered here by Houston's Sugar Shack. "Machine Shop," a catchy number that sounds kinda like X-Ray Spex, is a cover of Windsor's The Spys (scroll down a bit) by Junior Varsity, also from Houston. And "Wild West," done here by Helsinki's Teenage Kicks, was originally by The Rock & Roll Bitches of Edmonton.
