Cryptic Writings - Extended Plays

Extended Plays

Three extended plays were released in support of Cryptic Writings. Two of these featured live recordings from the ensuing tour while the other was a studio EP which featured instrumental versions of several album tracks. The live releases were entitled Live Trax, (released on June 30, 1998,) and Live Trax II, (released in 1998 as a bonus disc to Cryptic Writings,) with all songs from a recording taken at the Mesa Amphitheatre, Mesa, Arizona on July 13, 1997 except the last two tracks of each with Live Trax featuring recordings from the Olympic Auditorium, Los Angeles, California, February 25, 1995 and Live Trax II featuring studio remixes of "Almost Honest". The instrumental EP was released under the title Cryptic Sounds: No Voices in Your Head in Japan, Argentina and as a bonus disc to the album in Korea with the vocals on the tracks being replaced with extra guitar melodies and with "She-Wolf" being performed in a Spanish acoustic style for the first half.

Famous quotes containing the words extended and/or plays:

    No: until I want the protection of Massachusetts to be extended to me in some distant Southern port, where my liberty is endangered, or until I am bent solely on building up an estate at home by peaceful enterprise, I can afford to refuse allegiance to Massachusetts, and her right to my property and life. It costs me less in every sense to incur the penalty of disobedience to the State than it would to obey. I should feel as if I were worth less in that case.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The form of act or thought mattered nothing. The hymns of David, the plays of Shakespeare, the metaphysics of Descartes, the crimes of Borgia, the virtues of Antonine, the atheism of yesterday and the materialism of to-day, were all emanation of divine thought, doing their appointed work. It was the duty of the church to deal with them all, not as though they existed through a power hostile to the deity, but as instruments of the deity to work out his unrevealed ends.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
