It was originally released in two different mixes, one by Brain Records in Germany, and the other by Virgin Records in the rest of the world. There is also a re-recorded version from 2005 on Eastgate.
One notable feature of the album is that some of the sound effects on the track "NGC 891" were recorded using what is described as a "revolutionary artificial head system"[2], basically microphones in the ear canals of a dummy head. This produces a "surround sound" effect when played back through headphones.

gollark: I'm talking about querying spirits automatically, doing it manually would be irritating.
gollark: Hmm, I should probably have asked before, what information can they access? What kind of error rate?
gollark: What kind of hardware do you need to run yes/no questions against arbitrary spirits? How fast do they operate?
gollark: Well, you could easily get around that by only asking very accurately specified questions. In bulk, probably, with some spirits being assigned the same one in case of errors.
gollark: What's the actual difference between "good" and "bad" ones? Do the bad ones answer questions wrong more often?
