- Axes of Evil is also an anagram of 'E LOVES A FIX.
- Nothing about the Anachronisms is trivial.
- Living hard is better than dying hard.
A few notes of trivia for you die-hard Anachronisms fans:
A version of "Got My Mistletoe Working" was recorded by The Anachronisms in December of 1989 for a Christmas single, which was to have been released that Christmas. Both this recording and the one for the single's B side, "Slavic Bells", were lost before they were released. Two great Christmas recordings from December of 1987, "When a Man Loves a Deep-Rooted Materialist Custom" and "Midnight Santa", were also lost before their release as a single, but these recordings, as well as the afore-mentioned recording of "Slavic Bells" were found in 2002 and released that year on The Christmas CD. Unfortunately, the original recording of "Got My Mistletoe Working" has not been found (yet).

In May of 2003, Wentworth Sutton was quoted in this blog as stating, among other things: "As for the title of Axes of Evil, too little attention has been paid to the fact that it is an anagram of "Foxie Slave." Dr. Donald Zither points out that the title Axes of Evil is also an anagram of another phrase, which is closely related to the afore-mentioned one. This other phrase is "Foxies lave". Watching foxies lave is something which most of us would like to do, even if the foxies being watched were not slaves.
