"Brutal Equation" and "Unity of Oppression" were alternative rock hits on MTV.[3] The album peaked at No. 6 on the CMJ Radio Top 150.[4]

The name comes from Friendly Fascism: The New Face of Power in America, the title of a 1980 book by political scientist Bertram Gross[5] which lays out the form of "creeping fascism" that Gross feared might come to pass in the United States.
