The song "Orgullo" translates to "Pride"; it's about Soriano and Rivera's Puerto Rican Heritage. It originally appeared on the band's 1996 demo Generate.

The song "Tribute" is a cover of sorts. It mashes up Children's Story by Slick Rick, Woo-Hah by Busta Rhymes, and Method Man by the Wu-Tang Clan. Guest vocals provided by Grimm of Darwin's Waiting Room.
