Notes
There are differences in track times between the various formats of this release.
These are most noticeable on Driven Like The Snow and This Corrosion.
The 2006 reissue had, for the first time, the full demo version of Never Land.
Although a full length demo had surfaced in the past it was an instrumental.
This new version comes complete with vocals. Emma was taken from the Dominion 12".
Possible reasons for not including the other B-Sides from Dominion could
be put down to a couple of things.
1. There isn't enough room on the CD, or
2. Sandstorm/Untitled had already been featured on a compilation charity CD in the early 90's.
