Music

[edit]

The album comprises the band's first four releases: Spahn Ranch (1992), Collateral Damage (1993) and The Blackmail Starters Kit (1994) and Breath and Taxes (1994).[2] The collection also features three songs previously unreleased in Spahn Ranch's main discography: "Machine Politics" from The Whip (1993), "Failsafe" from The Colours of Zoth Ommog (1994) and "Reinventing Gravity", which was originally credited to Coersion, from Trance in Your Mind: The Unstoppable Trance Machine (1994). The track "Tour Intro 1994" was recorded during a live performance in New York City.[3]
