On the album's title, which is Tricky's birth name, Tricky stated: "Calling it 'Adrian Thaws' is saying 'You don't really know me.' So many times, people have tried to put a finger on me and every album I go to a different place." On the album's sound, Tricky also stated:
 ;templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" / ;I suppose this is my club/hip hop album. I've only heard my music a few times in a club but I grew up in clubs from when I was 14: blues parties, hip hop clubs, a few raves. I'm not known for doing club music but this album has some club tracks on it – well, what I would consider club music.
Michelle Geslani of "Consequence of Sound" reported that the album features elements from "hip hop, house, jazz, blues, and reggae," while describing the track "Nicotine Love" as "a slinky, body-moving number that seems well-suited for U.K. club-hopping."
