The album's title (a German onomatopoeia for a loud pop or bang) and cover art are derived from a comic strip named "Der tödliche Finger" that appeared in a 1970 issue of Hotcha, a Swiss underground newspaper.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Different panels of the same strip were adapted into cover art for other early Stereolab releases, and remain popular icons for the band.
