- Notes
- The bonus DVD consists of Rasputina's live performance at the Knitting Factory in New York City in 2002. It features Rasputina's old lineup from around that period. It also features a Q&A session. As is often the case with Rasputina's anachronistic sense of humor, the performance is credited to have been recorded in 1902.[1][2]
