1992–2012 The Anthology

1992–2012 The Anthology is a three-disc compilation album by Underworld, released 4 December 2011 on underworldlive.com for digital download. The physical CDs were released on 23 January 2012, along with A Collection, a single-disc compilation with radio edits.[7] The first two discs contain a revamped version of 1992–2002, while the third disc of the collection contains an unreleased track from the band's early period, along with b-sides and other rarities. 1992–2012 is notable for including an extended version of "Jumbo", which was previously only available on select promotional copies of Underworld's previous greatest hits collection, 1992–2002. Though the full version of "Moaner" is featured on 1992–2012, it quickly fades out at the end instead of ending abruptly. Along with previous soundtrack contributions "Born Slippy .NUXX", "Dark & Long (Dark Train)", "Cowgirl", "8 Ball" and "Moaner", this collection also includes "To Heal", which was used in Sunshine under the name "Capa Meets the Sun".
