The album contains cover versions of AC/DC's "Back in Black" and The Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows". While critically praised, Collideøscope is the band's first album that failed to chart.

A version of "Sacred Ground" previously appeared on their 1995 compilation album Pride.

Critical reception edit

Exclaim! wrote that "as always, variety is the order of the day with these talented musicians, with the band jumping from traditional hard rock, to groovy near-funk (bleh) to a reggae-tinged number, experimental soundscapes, etc."[3] The Chicago Tribune wrote: "As if time stood still, the album packs wallop with its aggressive sonic bursts and acute perspective on a post-9/11 society in flux."[10]
