The album found the group exploring the burgeoning genre of industrial music and included such tracks as "Memory Cones Over the Bay," and "My Time to Lick." Cut from the album before release were "Scoop It To The Android," and "If Your Ice Cream Talks to You...Don't Eat It." Both later surfaced on a bootleg album entitled Little Drips, released only in Europe by Cleopatra Records.

The Visitation is highly collectible as only 100 copies were ever pressed. Additionally, instead of using vinyl as was typical for records of the time, the album was pressed in some sort of mirror-like, shiny metal material.
