This edition contains a bonus disc with 6 tracks while the original European release has a 3-track bonus disc containing the songs "Drown With Me", "Chloroform" and "Strip the Soul (video edit)".
The counterfeit bonus disc contains the tracks from the European bonus disc plus "4 Chords That Made a Million", "Disappear" and "In Formaldehyde".
