The song "Long For The Flowers" is a re-working of an outtake from the 1997 album Transistor. The original song was called "Grifters".[1] The song "Little Brother" is an outtake that didn't make the album, but has been released on iTunes.[citation needed] The song "Frolic Room" is named for lead singer Nick Hexum's favorite Los Angeles bar. This song is not the first time he mentions the Frolic Room; it first comes up in "Guns (are for pussies)" on 311 ("Hollywood Boulevard barfly Frolic Room"), then again in lyrics to "Livin' and Rockin'", the final track on 1999's Soundsystem ("with whiskey soaked Frolic Room tobacco mouth"). S.A. Martinez called the song "an insurance policy (for 311) to reserve a slot on their juke for eternity." [2] "Speak Easy" was inspired by the studies of Wilhelm Reich. [3] S.A. Martinez claims that Reich's "belief is that any emotion we carry, we must let out. Otherwise, this said emotion will sit within us and manifest itself in ways which may not be good for our health. We create blocks that turn into physical symptoms that initially were emotions we denied ourselves from experiencing. It makes a lot of sense when you think about it." "Getting Through to Her" is a song about a man trying to make a connection with a girl who suffered from sexual abuse as a child. [4] "Solar Flare" is three minutes and 11 seconds long, and the only song with "rap" in the album.[citation needed] The album artwork was designed by "Studio Number One." This was the second 311 album not to receive a RIAA certification.[citation needed] Certain lyrics in the song "Don't Tread on Me", "There's a clock in my head/ And despite what it says/ Another one on the wall/ They don't agree at all", reference similar lyrics in the song "Day In Day Out" by XTC.[citation needed] Singles Frolic Room Frolic Room is the third song on the album and has a happy vibe to it. The song was written about the Frolic Room, a bar where lead singer Nick Hexum enjoys spending time. There is also a line about the Frolic Room in the song "Livin' and Rockin'", from 1999's Soundsystem. The Frolic Room is also mentioned in "Guns (Are For Pussies)" from the bands eponymously titled "blue album."
