Considered by some half witted indivuals to be a classic LP of the 2000s. Here on its umpteenth pressing on its 5th record label (previously Manic Ride (CD only), Six Weeks, Annihilate!, Tym, and now Tee Pee).
"On II, the Annihilation Time dudes take a giant leap back into the fuzzed-out riff-rock era. The sound was thickened up by adding the former guitar player for Ohio thrashers Gordon Solie Motherfuckers, Shaun Filley. Even with the influence of Blue Oyster Cult, early Deep Purple and Blue Cheer, they still hold on to their punk roots, showing off hints of bands like The Germs, Sick Pleasure, and RKL. The record was done at Holland's Motorwolf Studios. The sound was created almost exclusively using vintage gear while the band was on a break from touring Europe. Whatever they did, it was all worth it because this is the best record of 2005 so far.

The cover of the CD pretty much sums it up for this album. The five band members' heads are depicted rising out of a toilet in a puff of bong smoke and a sea of multi-colored pills. Surrounding the smoked-out rockers are monsters reminiscent of '80s skateboard graphics. Beneath the scene are the faces of Lemmy Kilmister and Phil Lynott, accompanied by mushrooms, beer cans, and a zombie wearing a BOC t-shirt. I really can't think of a better description of this record than the one that the artist put on the cover." -some donkey-brained music reviewer
