The promotional copy of this release listed track #8 as "I'll Try" and track #11 as "Rise (Alt. Mix)".

Trivia:
"Anyone For Doomsday?" was shelved two weeks prior to release (August 2001). "From a creative standpoint, the record didn’t feel ready." (Spider One, www.powerman5000.com)
A major part of the already manufactured copies were destroyed, but an unknown number still exist as well as promotional copies (CDr). The album went to internet stardom and was heavily downloaded worldwide. Especially the single "Bombshell" became very popular, being featured on numerous movie soundtracks.

A promotional version with different artwork was made available on the band's official website through Spider One's Megatronic Records in 2003, but is now out of print due to legal issues.
A few tracks of the album were available online via iTunes and Megatronic Records. On April 7th, Spider announced on the message board of Megatronic Records, that the album is available in full on iTunes.

"Anyone For Doomsday?" marks the end of Powerman 5000's electronic/industrial era, as well as the end of the then current line-up. The band disbanded, reformed and shifted towards a more punk/rock oriented approach.
