By 1999, it was subsequently re-issued by eventual successor company Volcano Entertainment and was re-released in 2007 with updated cover art and 4 bonus tracks.

Outside Canada Kick Axe find themselves popping up under a pseudonym as Spectre General, allegedly due to record label legalities in the USA.
