Notes

The box set compiles the original Datapanik In The Year Zero EP, the first five albums The Modern Dance / Dub Housing / New Picnic Time / The Art Of Walking / Song Of The Bailing Man along with a disc of live material (CD4) and another of related rarities and previously unreleased pre-Ubu material (5-03, 5-09, 5-11, 5-13, 5-15 to 5-17) (CD5). It omits 'Use Of A Dog' from Song Of The Bailing Man, 'Humor Me', 'Not Happy' and 'Lonesome Cowboy Dave' from Terminal Tower and the vocal version of "Arabia" from The Art Of Walking. With 38 pp. booklet.

In 2009, Cooking Vinyl released a remastered version of the box set. It restores 'Use Of A Dog' but omits the fourth disc of live recordings.

Digital transfer and eq at Suma in 1994. The digital transfer from the original analog master mix tapes used Suma's custom built 20-bit DA processor.

    devotown
    Contains some of the greatest, and worst, music ever recorded.
    If one is not already aware, tracks from 390 Degrees of Simulated Stereo Volume One and One Man Drives While the Other Man Screams are left off for CD4 here.
