NOTES

Richard from Versus and Mark from Teen-Beat started planning this vinyl release in 2009, 12 years before it saw the light of day.

The Teen-Beat catalogue number originally allocated for this project was 452.

This release went through three different cover designs before settling on the final. The first design was a re-working of the original CD cover by Andrew Bordwin. The second was a yellow bolt of lightning against a blue or red background, based on an old Versus t-shirt. The final design was created in November of 2019.
