Notes

1. "Ein Bisschen Frieden" has been labeled as "Collo Rossi" for the promotional release.
2. "The Hix Off" has been sublabeled "Live" on the promotional release, which says it is the intro used for live performances.
3. "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" uses the same animated music video by Mike Johnson labeled by the band as the official video, previously released by Primus in 1998.
