TAN Mitsugu: "This "reverse dictionary" is in reality a disc guide in the style of keyword dictionary, compiled to coincide with Video Arts Japan's marketing campaign for the 1995 Ryko remasters. For example, the first keyword (in Japanese alphabetical order) is "inu (dog)", which leads to "Dog Breath" on the Uncle Meat album."
