Background

The band released the album at the time of the launch of the Criminal Justice Act, the legislation that gave British Police greater legal powers to break up unlicensed raves that gave Orbital its name. The Are We Here? single featured the track "Are We Here? (Criminal Justice Bill?)", which consists of four minutes of complete silence.

"Philosophy by Numbers" samples Sidney Stratton's chemistry experiment, "Guggle Glub Gurgle", from the film The Man in the White Suit.

"Are We Here?" samples a part of "Man at C&A" by The Specials; the track's vocals are by Alison Goldfrapp, as on "Sad But True". "Are We Here?" is also on Work 1989-2002.

The album was included in Q magazine's "The 25 Best Dance Albums Ever" in October 1997.[3] It also made QTemplate:'s end-of-year top 10 best albums list in 1994.[4]
