- Sides on the vinyl release are labelled "Back" and "Forth".
- Originally released as a vinyl EP in 1984 by Nettwerk. The first CD release was in 1987, when Remission (along with the extra track "Glass Out") was combined with the 1985 album Bites to form the release Bites and Remission on Nettwerk in 1987. A similar release called Remission & Bites was also released on Play It Again Sam in Europe during the same year. Finally, in 1993, Remission was released separately on CD, with some alternate versions of tracks from the Bites era added to extend the playing time to album length.
