Trivia

  • As part of an April Fools joke, a limited edition 8-track tape was made available during the first week of April in 2019. Continuing the tradition, a limited edition "No Moon No Stars LP" was also released on April 1, 2021. It was all black, unlike Needlejuice's typical colored vinyl, released in a limited run of 100.
  • The tracklist went though many iterations during development. Some tracks considered for Spirit Phone were later released as singles and eventually compiled into the Nature Tapes EP in 2014 (namely Everybody Loves Raymond).
