For more than a year, the album was only available for purchase by ordering it from Japan. Japanese website "Neowing" released samples of each song.[4] On February 3, 2009, it became available as a digital download.[5]

A US version was released on January 25, 2011, through Bill Laswell's new label, M.O.D. Technologies.[6] The re-release features two new live tracks, "Wedge" and "Subgrid". Not long after this re-release, Laswell commented on the likely end of the band and that he considered the band as a "closed chapter".[7] M.O.D. Technologies also slated (through their distributor Redeye Distribution) a vinyl version for April 2013.[8]
