Sex and Religion is a Steve Vai album presented under the name of simply
\"Vai\" and before then \"Light Without Heat\" but had to be changed due to
copyright issues to the original name. It features Strapping Young Lad and
The Devin Townsend Band vocalist and guitarist Devin Townsend on vocals
before he started either one of his own bands. Townsend also co-wrote the
track \"Pig\", as well as \"Just Cartilage\" which was left off the final album.
Steve also worked with Desmond Child on the track \"In My Dreams with You\".
For this album, Steve wished to put together a band of awe-inspiring
musicians, which included him, Townsend, drummer Terry Bozzio and bassist
T.M.Stevens, but ended up micro-managing the writing and recording process
that was supposed to be a band of equals causing much conflict during the
making of the album with a \"band\", which ideally is a democracy and
therefore a catch-22. The band that recorded the album never toured in
support of it due to conflicts during the recording process; in the words of
Steve Vai \"...now the next record (after Passion and Warfare) was supposed
to be so important. It turned out to be a hard record to make. There was the
concept of putting this band together with all monster musicians. It worked in
theory, but not in practice. I was hoping everybody could contribute their
performance expertise while I sort of guided the band in the direction that I
thought the music should go. They were very talented people that had
definite ideas of the music they liked to play, and it all clashed
dramatically.[2]

\"I was not ready for a band. You see, usually the idea of a band is to get
together with people who could contribute their ideas and talents in a healthy
exchange. With players like Terry Bozzio, T.M. Stevens and Devin Townsend,
in order to have a band there needs to be an unconditional acceptance of
everybody else’s contribution. I was not ready for that kind of commitment
on my part. Although it may have seemed unfair to the others, there were
definite ideas on which way I wanted to go with the music. Those guys are
really wonderful musicians, but they have their own personality. When I try
to have a band together I\'m too much of a control freak. I want things to be
done too much of a certain way. I gave them some freedom, but the freedom
musicians of this calibre need, I wasn\'t able to give. Therefore, blame it on
me, this project will not come together again. After the tour for the album
was finished, the band split up, and Steve toured with Townsend and several
session bassists and drummers.
