The first disc of the album is all original songs by the Dirtbombs while the second disc is all cover songs. The title of the album comes from a memo sent from Little Steven to bands participating in a festival that will be broadcast worldwide on television and recommends "If your band does not have a "look" this might be a good time to consider it.".[6]
