The band included the eponymous track "Thunderpussy" on this album as their theme song, commenting "Every band should have a theme song, especially if your band is called 'Thunderpussy'." They remarked, "This was our big chance to do what we had always wanted since the first time we heard 'Bad Company' by Bad Company: write a self-titled track."[2]
