Hetfield's Motorbreath Pub Band, this album contains re-recordings of songs from the band's EP releases A Garage Dayz Nite and Beatallica, plus six new Beatles/Metallica mashup songs.

Beatallica released a video for the single "Hero of the Day Tripper" on YouTube, the band's first official full-length video.

With a slight nod to Metallica's 2 of One video release, the official video for "Fuel on the Hill" was released on March 5, 2009, along with another version entitled "Benzin auf dem Berg". Both were shot at the same time and planned as a dual release. "Benzin auf dem Berg" is the German film noir counterpart to "Fuel on the Hill".
