The fourth volume was released separately on vinyl in a cardboard box designed to hold the previously released vinyl volumes.
"a bao a qu" is also the title of another, seemingly unrelated track that appears in several different forms: one used for a single and video compilation; another for Sound Track from Film "Mabuta no Ura"; and yet another for Boris / Variations + Live in Japan. "No Ones Grieve Part 2" was reused with additional vocals on Smile.
