Their previous recordings were all independently produced and distributed demos. All of the tracks on the album are fleshed-out, finished versions of their demo tracks, with the exception of "Haiku," which was a completely new song. The album gets its name from a [[Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum (Place)|museum of mechanized curiosities of the same name]] located in Farmington Hills, Michigan. | ||
