The album consists of three different parts:[2]

  2. Part II: Collapse / Collide; Clones; Bastardised Ink; Kings of Speed; Whore
  3. Part III: Chaos; Razed to the Ground; Funeral

In the beginning, the band wanted to include a fourth part. It was later released as Controlling Crowds – Part IV on 19 October 2009.[3] Both albums were released on the same day as a double CD under the name Controlling Crowds - The Complete Edition Parts I–IV.[4]

As of 2009 it has sold 33,350 copies in France.[5]

The second song on the album, "Bullets", was used in the January 2013 teaser for CD Projekt Red's game titled Cyberpunk 2077.[6]

gollark: To randomly interject very late, I don't agree with your reasoning here. As far as physicists can tell, while pretty complex and hard for humans to understand, relative to some other things the universe runs on simple rules - you can probably describe the way it works in maybe a book's worth of material assuming quite a lot of mathematical background. Which is less than you might need for, say, a particularly complex modern computer system. You know what else is quite complex? Gods. They are generally portrayed as acting fairly similarly to humans (humans like modelling other things as basically-humans and writing human-centric stories), and even apart from that are clearly meant to be intelligent agents of some kind. Both of those are complicated - the human genome is something like 6GB, a good deal of which probably codes for brain things. As for other intelligent things, despite having tons of data once trained, modern machine learning things are admittedly not very complex to *describe*, but nobody knows what an architecture for general intelligence would look like.

gollark: If your study produces no result you just won't publish it, which leads to some bias.
