==Bonus Tracks==
<blockquote>"I tried doing an album that I actually just wrote on guitar rather than my tried-and-true method of a drum machine and keyboards. So with the exception of 'Happiness in Slavery' all songs were written on guitar. I was gonna make it totally stripped down to guitar, bass and drums but as I started it I realized I could easily fall into another trap. What might sound interesting to me - because I'm not used to it - may sound like a garage band to the world. So we just took the three instruments and sampled 'em, fucked with 'em, processed them. It's kind of overboard, we did go crazy. It's kind of dense, too dense. It's over analyzed - every song has 20 different melodies that you won't hear the first five or ten times you listen, or maybe never."</blockquote>
==Live==
All of these songs have been played live over the years. Some tracks were played as early as 1991 on the [[Lollapalooza Tour]], though "Last" wasn't played until [[Performance 2007]] tour. The EP was played live and sequentially in full (including "Physical" and "Suck") on the first date of the [[Cold And Black And Infinite Tour]].
