This album is the band's first attempt at mixing industrial with rock and metal. However, only the first three songs Stigmata, The Missing, and Deity extensively use guitars while the rest of the album is much more industrial with elements of electronics and samples throughout.
The album title comes from the slogan of Tisdale, Saskatchewan, whose motto is "The Land of Rape and Honey," the local economy being based on the agricultural products rapeseed and honey. The band chose the name after seeing the slogan on a souvenir mug.
The track Stigmata is featured in Richard Stanley's 1990 science fiction thriller Hardware, although the band shown apparently performing the track is actually Gwar.
The album was certified Gold by the RIAA in January 1996. The album was out of print for a few years in the early 2000s, but was re-issued by Wounded Bird Records in 2007. This re-issue is misprinted, labeling the title track "The Land of Milk and Honey."
