Three of its seven songs are cover versions - 'Rollercoaster' by the 13th Floor Elevators, 'Mary Anne' by Juicy Lucy, and the Stooges' 'Little Doll' - while the originals are at once very much Spacemen 3 songs and clear distillations of everything the band members were tripping out on at the time.
Sonic Boom's liner notes from the 1994 reissue in many ways capture the whole point of Spacemen 3's full-length debut: ' was basically an exorcism for us of our early material.we began our discography with an equal nod to our influences and our inspirations.' Indeed, calling Sound of Confusion derivative misses the point entirely, where calling it anything but a clear and specific homage to a sound and style would be a complete mistake.
