Water is Saigon Kick's third album. It was originally planned to be titled, "Fields of Rape", but censorship concerns forced the band to change it. The album cover was not changed. It is the first Saigon Kick album to feature guitarist Jason Bieler on lead vocals, and to feature bassist Chris McLernon. A music video was created for the song "I Love You".
