South Californian artist Shag designed and executed the album cover artwork, the first of various collaborations with The Dickies.
Trouser Press wrote that "included on this fun (if less than inspired) release is a gimmicky remake of Jet Screamer’s Jetsons rockabilly classic 'Eep Opp Ork (Uh, Uh),' one more item in the Dickies’ ever-expanding catalog of daffy covers."[4]
The video for "Killer Klowns" features the band performing in a penitentiary, with guards and inmates for an audience. Various clips from the movie are shown; Phillips and his bandmates interact with several of these. Ultimately, the Klowns commandeer the band's instruments and toss them in a cell. Last to be locked up is Phillips himself, who asks the others: "So...What're you in for?" [5]
