Deniz had scored the job producing The Stump Wizards' album Contains Lead. While they were in the studio they cut this single using the moniker Deep Reduction.

The Stump Wizards had wanted to record with Deniz during their sessions, so these two songs were quickly finished from rough musical ideas that Jack (Gotta Say No) and Deniz (Black Tulip) already had.

The lyrics were penned on the spot, and the songs done live, the entire recording took less than 2 hours. The particular sounds chosen resulted in a jagged, raw overall noise something like you would get if the band had been live in a small club with brick walls.
