When the inside cover is unfolded, part of the logo for Mwng, an album by Super Furry Animals released the previous year, can be seen. The photographs that make up the artwork for the album were taken in a bar in Glasgow called Nice 'n' Sleazy. So the song was about that." The song "2 "Rights Make 1 Wrong" was originally titled "Banjo". It puts you in a weird place when you're making a phone call. But in Welsh, dial – pronounced 'dee-al' – means revenge. When you take a payphone off the hook, on the LCD screen it flashes 'DIAL'. Back then, people were still using payphones. Rhys has said of the song title: "I think (Mogwai) were into me writing in Welsh, because they're an instrumental band and they wanted a singer who would be just sounds for most people. The single "Dial: Revenge" features Welsh vocals from Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals. The tone of Rock Action is somewhat less dark than previous works, but maintains Mogwai's cryptic cynicism. For the first time, Mogwai utilised synthesizers, expanding their timbral palette. While song structures on this album are typical of the band in most cases and respects, some of the contrasting dynamics have been toned down slightly and many of the songs focus more on texture than on structure. Rock Action brought with it some changes to Mogwai's sound that they would continue to develop later, including the use of electronic instruments.
