The cover, created by Manolo Gil on the band's own idea, bears an undeniable resemblance to that of The Rolling Stones' "Beggars Banquet" (Decca, 1968) from 1968. Sometime later, the band said they were not aware of the resemblance when the final design of the album was decided. The recording and mixing were once again in the hands of Jean Phocas. The double-sheet inside, which contains only the lyrics in three languages (Spanish, Basque and English), is particularly noteworthy. On this occasion, the album's production seems to have a guitar sound that is perhaps more powerful than on other occasions. At times it even sounds like the arrangements of a heavy rock or metal band (...).
