The song "Bought and Sold" was not included on the original vinyl release, and is omitted from some CD versions of the album, including the reissue. Instead, these versions include two bonus tracks, the cover of Chrome's "Third from the Sun" and "Mind the Gap", originally taken from Prong's 1989 EP Third from the Sun (also known as 3). Although the EP is no longer available, Prong still regularly performs "Third from the Sun".
