Anyone know the story behind the album title? Is it supposed to be some sort of cannabis reference?

From an interview with Spider Stacy:

"Who's Herb?
MANY thought right away that the "Herb" of the album's title referred to marijuana. Not so, clarified Spider, it's far more socially responsible. It's the name of a German cartoon pornography character."

I have an interview with Phil (if i remember right) were he says the book is written in three/four different languages which makes the translations hilarous. The band used to read it on long boring trips across Germany.
The plot: Herb is away on buisness and his two girlfriends are home alone lovesick, eventually Herb comes home and makes up for lost time.
