Alternative Physical Version
Although the single was never released officially on a physical format, a consortium of Feeder's supporters submitted various designs for an alternative to the front cover artwork for the single. The designs were then voted on, with the best one then being submitted to an external company not involved with the band who manufacture digipacks. Each member of the consortium paid a small sum of money to one member of the consortium group, who then contacted and liased with the digipacks manufacturer. The resulting digipacks were therefore empty, with the owner downloading the single and b-sides before burning them onto a CDR to place in the digipack, in the same order as indicated on the reverse.

“If the only new thing we have to offer is an improved version of the past, then today can only be inferior to yesterday. Hypnotised by images of the past, we risk losing all capacity for creative change.”
