== Overview ==
=== Title/Art ===
The album's title, initially intended to be "The Tapes of Wrath", ended up being derived from chapter 69 of Aleister Crowley's The Book of Lies. In the book, Crowly uses the expression "The way to succeed and the way to suck eggs" as a pun for the 69 sex position ("suck seed" and "suck eggs"). Moreover, Crowley titled the chapter ΚΕΦΑΛΗΞΘ (which translates literally as "shrugged" and contains the sound ΛΗΞ "licks") but has a second meaning as a compound of Greek κεφαλη ("head") and Ξ Θ (an encoded alphabetic reference to "69") which both have slang meanings in English for sexual acts).
