Naming the album
On one of Gravity Kills's online chat transcripts named, 17th April, 2000 - Part 1, in the middle of the part someone says:

"'Tom_M: Perversion was gonna be named Whore, am I correct?"

Then one of the members of the band reply:

"'Gravity_Kills: Perversion was going to be named 'whore' - you are correct."

The story behind that is where the band were originally going to be name the album "Whore", but their record label disagreed with the name and thought it was not a good idea to use the title, so 2 days before they would go to manufacturing the CDs, the band had came up with name Perversion, so it was the album was titled Perversion.
