The album was released on CD only. A limited edition CDROM of the album contains two live videos ("Teethgrinder" & "Who Knows") from the Scopophobia DVD.
Polish label Metal Mind Productions re-released the album on November 2, 2009. The album was remastered using 24-Bit technology, limited to 1000 copies, on a gold disk digipak CD.[6]

This originator of this commonly used phrase, often attributed to the hardline politicians of the House of Windsor (British Royalty), Duke of Wellington, Benjamin Disraeli and others, is said to be John Arbuthnot Fisher, a notable British Admiral of the Victorian and Edwardian era. ("Boldness has genius, power and magic in it ... Never contradict. Never explain. Never apologise”). And even earlier, King Charles I of England is quoted in The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations as writing "Never make a defence or apology before you be accused", in a letter to Lord Wentworth as long ago as 1636.
