April 14 street date. "All Hail West Texas" was originally released as a free-standing compact disc on the late, lamented Emperor Jones label.

The songs were originally transferred from the cassettes onto which they were recorded to 1/4" reels at Tiny Telephone by Alex Newport, who also played in Fudge Tunnel. John got really excited when he realized his tapes were being EQ'd by the guy from Fudge Tunnel. Remastered from those reels, along with 7 unearthed songs from the two surviving contemporaneous cassettes, "All Hail West Texas" stands as the peak of the Mountain Goats' home recording era. All songs recorded on the day they were written, usually within minutes of the actual composition. Highlights include "Jenny", "Fall of the Star High School Running Back", and "The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton", a song which has compelled audiences around the globe to yell "Hail Satan", and to mean it.
