Notes

  1. ↑ "Ein Bisschen Frieden" has been labeled as "Collo Rossi" for the promotional release.
  2. ↑ "The Hix Off" has been sublabeled "Live" on the promotional release, which says it's the intro used for live performances.
  3. ↑ "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" uses the same animated music video by Mike Johnson labeled by the band as the official video, previously released by Primus in 1998.
