"Ostia (The Death Of Pasolini)" was originally released on "Horse Rotorvator"."Where Are You?" and "Batwings (A Limnal Hymn)" were originally released on "Musick To Play In The Dark Vol. 2".

"Who'll Fall?" was originally released on "Stolen & Contaminated Songs". "First Dark Ride" was originally released on the 12" "Nasa Arab" as Coil vs. The Eskaton. The song was later released on "Unnatural History III". "Further Back And Faster" was originally released on "Love's Secret Domain". "Red Skeletons" and "Blue Rats" were originally released on "A Thousand Lights In A Darkened Room" as Black Light District. "Scope" was originally released on "Wrong Eye/Scope" and later released on "Unnatural History III". "A.Y.O.R." was previously available in a slightly longer form on the bootleg "Backwards".
