5 days before the release of "Talking of Axes", Tut Tut Child proposed to his girlfriend, and she accepted.
The song's title possibly was derived from a quote by the Duchess from Chapter 6—"Pig and Pepper"—of Lewis Carroll's 1865 novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: "Talking of axes, chop off her head!"
The word "The" doesn't mean it occurs mostly in the "T" section; rather, it is excluded so that the next word after the word "The" (e.g.: "The Alchemist's Nightmare") will occur in that specific letter (e.g: "A").
