It was originally released on vinyl only, the second pressing had CD copies as well (probably to reach a larger audience). There is at least one difference between the vinyl versions - the labels are of different colour (at least between the copies I was able to check). The first pressing has lighter text on a blue background, the second pressing has darker text on a blue background. I think the first pressing looks a bit nicer :). There could be other differences as well, but as I have just two copies of the first pressing I can't do a proper comparison. The tracks are the same. As for the new BoC EP, I'm still digesting. The title track is just fantastic (I have a newly found love of vocoders and twisted speech samples), though grows a bit weary towards the end. ``Zoetrope'' is absolutely fabulous. ``Kid For Today'' and ``Amo Bishop Roden'' are still in limbo, but as with all much-anticipated releases, I will probably start to like the EP more and more as I listen to it. Maybe it's because I've been too much into electro, techno and really weird stuff lately - I might be temporarily melodically challenged.
