Limited edition 3xLP+CD+DL limited to 300 copies, mailorder only.
All formats include download voucher for a digital copy containing all songs plus four extra tracks.
About the extra tracks: The tracks are a mixture of various demos recorded from around 1991 until around 1997. Many of the early demos were transferred from the original cassette tapes that have been kept in various places over the last 20 or so years and subject to all temperatures and levels of humidity and as such some of the fidelity has been lost. These were lovingly mastered by Anders Petersen with a view to keeping as much of the original sound as possible and as a result there are various hisses, crackles dropouts.
