Notes: Released in mid-1994 in celebration of the 25th Anniversary of the Pink Pop Festival, held annually in Hilversum, Holland. This release is just a collection of B-sides, strangely, it neglects to include "Clear the Lane" from the Killing in the Name Single. I wouldn't really call this a single, as it runs for 46 minutes and has 9 tracks! If you see it, then buy it, as it is rare.
