Two significant differences from the original release:

Track A1, "The Fuse" has an alternate 'cold' ending, different from the long fade of the original release. This was also used on the initial standard CD release from Asylum.
Track B4, "The Pretender" is a shorter version, missing the entire second verse (similar to the single edit) with an actual length of approximately 5:09, instead of the 5:50 listed on the label. This was also used on some reissues of the LP from Asylum.
