How It Works was the 6th release from Australian punk-rock group Bodyjar. The single from the album "Not the Same" was used by Pepsi in an advertising campaign in Australia. It was also used in two video games: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and MX Superfly.

It reached gold status in 2005. Along with Bodyjar's other EMI album Plastic Skies, it is now out of print.

Notes

The Japanese issue comes with two bonus tracks -

1) "Self Inflicted" (previously released on Not the Same EP in Australia)
2) "Halfway Around the World" (previously released on Fall To The Ground EP in Australia)

The disc was re-issued in limited numbers in Australia as a 2-CD set which included the You Got Me A Girls Bike You Idiot! EP. This double CD Issue was first released with picture discs identical to the original releases (of How It Works and You Got Me A Girl's Bike You Idiot!), then subsequently with silver discs.

EMI also released the 2CD version of How It Works with Plastic Skies as a double album promotion in August 2005. Both albums were in their own jewel cases with full original artwork, and both were silver discs. They were packaged together in a card slipcase.
