Civilization is an album by Vancouver industrial band Front Line Assembly, released in 2004. The album was produced by band founder Bill Leeb and returning member Rhys Fulber who had departed in 1996. Civilization has been described by reviewers as being a more stylistically diverse and relaxed album especially when compared to one of the band's previous releases, Millennium.[2][3]

Album errors

Metropolis mislabeled the back cover tracklisting on Civilization releases on at least three different occasions. The errors included swapping song titles, missing the song "Schicksal," and excluding the "Dissident" page in the booklet. These numerous errors led to rumors that Metropolis was releasing special edition copies of the album. All of these rumors were false.[4] While the tracklisting found on the back cover was incorrect, the linear notes still had all the songs in correct order excluding copies with the missing "Dissident" page.
