    • Trivia

  • The song "The River" was re-recorded by Greg Chaisson for his 1994 solo album It's About Time with Rob Lamothe of the Riverdogs on lead vocals. The album features original Badlands drummer Eric Singer on all songs.
  • Jake E Lee would re-use the main riff in "Sun Red Sun" for the song "Blood Provider," and the main riff in "Walking Attitude" for the song "The Key", demoed with his post-Badlands group, Wicked Alliance, which featured World War III vocalist Mandy Lion and future Korn drummer Ray Luzier.
  • After leaving Badlands and moving back to the East Coast, vocalist Ray Gillen joined New York-based all-star band Sun Red Sun, which he named after the Badlands song.
  • The song "Lord Knows" was originally written and demoed for the first Badlands record, but ultimately left off the album.
