[edit] Song origins

"Amethyst Deceivers" was originally released on the single Autumn Equinox: Amethyst Deceivers. "The Lost Rivers Of London" was previously released on Unnatural History III as "Lost Rivers Of London". The song was originally released on the compilation Succour - Terrascope Benefit Album. In 1996, the song was remade and released as "London's Lost Rivers" on the Black Light District album A Thousand Lights In A Darkened Room. "Are You Shivering?" was originally released on Musick To Play In The Dark Vol. 1. "Ostia (The Death Of Pasolini)" was originally released on Horse Rotorvator. "Where Are You?" was originally released on Musick To Play In The Dark Vol. 2. "At The Heart Of It All" was originally released on Scatology. This version of "A Cold Cell" is exclusive to this compilation. A similar version was released on the compilation The Wire Tapper 6 with a track timing of 6:24. The song was later reworked and released as "Cold Cell" on The Ape Of Naples. "Batwings (A Limnal Hymn)" is also an exclusive version, although a very similar version appears on Musick To Play In The Dark Vol. 2. The difference between the two is that the MTPID2 version is 11:32 long with music, while the shorter version that appears on this compilation, has an opening of a sound resembling a truck driving on a road. "Who'll Fall?" was originally released on Stolen & Contaminated Songs. "The Dreamer Is Still Asleep" originally appeared on Musick To Play In The Dark Vol. 1.
