In 2003, Chris Slusarenko of Off Records produced and released a charity tribute album which also included new material adding to the mythology of Hedwig. Slusarenko said that he fielded questions from Kim Deal of The Breeders about Frank Black, her former bandmate in Pixies, with whom she'd had limited conversation since the band's breakup in 1993.
They made contact soon after, and Pixies reunited the following spring. Trask and Mitchell recorded a Tommy Gnosis song, written for this album and based on an unfinished snippet from the show's development days, called "Milford Lake" (sung by Mitchell) and included it.
