It contains all the songs from the five 7” EPs, one split 7” EP and the Vexed LP on Crackle as well as tracks from obscure Japanese and English compilation CDs, a Junk Records 7” and two Snuffy Smile Split 7” EPs. The songs are returned to original session order for the first time on CD, and early demo tracks are also included.
