One reviewer complimented Schreiner and the backing band for the "many exciting details in the soundscape, that reveals something new every time you listen to the songs".
After recording a demo in May 2006 at Knut's Crystal Canyon Studio the band recorded the basic tracks at Fagerborg Lydstudio and returned to Crystal Canyon again to finish the recordings together with Anders Møller (of Gluecifer and Euroboys among others).
Turbonegro guitarist Euroboy explained the club's origin: "We thought about how Kiss had the Kiss Army so we thought that Turbonegro should have our own Navy. It started as a joke in Happy-Tom’s apartment in 1995. We put his address on the album sleeves and it was all just for laughs. The Jugend blossomed into something way bigger than we ever expected."
