Additionally it also features three original compositions, including "Crusher", which was previously released via Adult Swim; [6] [7] these originated from a scrapped EP. Despite being a remix album, the band still made an effort to make it "feel like a real album" with the arrangement of tracks, placing more "high-powered" tracks towards the end. [2]
