Notes

This release is very similar to Check Your Head, except by the "Frontline" line on left-side barcode in a separated line, and by the lack of thankyou's credits on booklet's first studio photo.

Catalog number on disc face: CDP 7 98938 2
Catalog number on inlay, spine, and insert: CDP•7 98938 2
(The spaces offsetting the first and last digit are fairly narrow, so it nearly looks like CDP•7989382)
