The single was sub-titled "strangely limited edition" due to the 12" vinyl record being deleted after two weeks. This was to move the focus over to the release of the debut album, Experience, a few months later. Experience is the debut album by the English band The Prodigy. Even when the single was re-released, the subtitle was still standing.

The song uses the sample "I am the god of Hell fire, and I bring you (fire)" from The Crazy World of Arthur Brown's 1968 single "Fire". Arthur Brown (born Arthur Wilton 24 June 1942, Whitby, Yorkshire) is an English Rock and roll Singer " Fire " is a 1968 song by Arthur Brown, Vincent Crane, Mike Finesilver and Peter Ker

A video was directed by frequent collaborator Russel Simmons, but the band thought the result to be so bad that they prohibited it from airplay. Russell Simmons (born October 4, 1957 in Queens New York) is an American entrepreneur and philanthropist The video did however turn up on a compilation from XL called The Video Chapter. Due to its rarity, this video has been much sought after by fans.
