"The first pressing of the album contains a few packaging mistakes (cd tray glued to wrong panel) by way of oversights at the printing press. The band apologizes for this and the next batch will be correctly printed, consider the first pressing to be a collector's edition!!!"
The CD tray is glued to the centre panel and obscures the band photo
Made in the UK.
