Original Titles

Before the release of Draft 7.30, early tracks titles were uploaded to CDDB. For each corresponding track they were:

  1. Benk Chin
  2. nwnw8
  3. 606.ie
  4. reppat
  5. Theft
  6. Prince Moth Mothy Moth Moth
  7. Vlimpton Alpha 5
  8. Foam Conduit
  9. uprock
  10. kidney bean

It was questioned whether this was vandalism until the WATMM AAA where Sean answered that they were the actual file titles that he threw onto CDDB "for a laugh." [1]

Trivia

  • The album’s title implies that the released version is the 30th edit of the band’s seventh album.
  • The track titles are sometimes stylized as being in all uppercase. (Ex. "XYLIN ROOM")
  • “Theme Of Sudden Roundabout” is likely a reference to Sudden, a suburb of Rochdale, where Rob and Sean grew up. The titular roundabout in question could be this one, as seen on Google Maps.
