A likely tracklist, keeping in mind TMBG's penchant for reverse-chronological order:

"This was the rumored title of a rumored album that never saw the light of day. Had it existed, this album would feature the b-sides from TMBG's years on the Elektra label. Fortunately, Elektra's failure to recognize the market for such a compilation doesn't prevent you from collecting the songs and burning your own. :) I've added a few more (non-Elektra) songs just because they fit: stray songs from "various artists" albums and the studio recordings from Severe Tire Damage. There's at least one other fan-created incarnation of this compilation out there, with a chronological tracklist. For mine, I decided to exclude all the remixes to make more room for unique titles, and to arrange the songs for a more interesting flow. Preference is given to alternating Johns, and to breaking chronology as much as possible." - Bryce, BryceLand

I'd like to add that in the spirit of the phrase, it should really be spelled "Freakcicle" (much like "icicle" or "popcicle"), and not the widely-known corruption "Freaksickle" (which connotes a farm implement). That's why I've spelled it that way on the cover shown above. -Bryce

In 2007, the song Employee Of The Month was released on TMBG's MySpace profile with the text "Superfueled Freaksicle, 2011 No Doubt Theater" displayed to the left of the MySpace player.
