This album was recorded and mixed over two sessions in February and June 2001 at The Henson Studios, Los Angeles. Although Paul and the band had never met before, let alone played together, they recorded 18 tracks in the first two weeks in February. The sessions ended with mixing in June with a total of just five weeks for the entire sessions. Reportedly, 22 tracks have been recorded altogether (which will surely give us a few new tracks as B-sides on singles).
