[edit] Supplemental information
- The photo on the cover is at San Vicente Boulevard and La Brea Avenue in Los Angeles, California
- On the European release of Quality Control, one track differs - track 14 is "Concrete and Clay" (replacing "Improvise"). The track is something of a reprise or re-working of the song "Concrete Schoolyard" from their debut album, Jurassic 5 LP, and the two songs share the same chorus.
- The Australian edition of the album included a second disc containing instrumental versions of each of the tracks.
- The track "Improvise" was featured on the English version of the cult Dreamcast game, Jet Set Radio (Jet Grind Radio in the US).
- Great Expectations was used as a track in the video game Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX.
