German label Zoth Ommog issued a four-track single that contains remixes of "Fatalist" (Rhys Fulber), "Retribution" (Front 242) and "Prophecy" (Haujobb) as well as non-album track "Deception".[17] The six track version was released for the Scandinavian countries through Energy and in the United States through Metropolis.[18] Additional tracks on this version are two remixes of "Fatalist" by Aqualite and Tribal Techno.
