- Note: The LP version has the tracks in a different order: "No One Can Be Called as a Man While He'll Die" comes before all the other tracks.
- Note: The title "Desasters in the Sun" is, on the one hand, taken from a line in Shakespeare's Hamlet, Act I, Scene I. On the other hand, the spelling of "Desasters" is a reference to the Destruction song "Total Desaster" from their debut release Sentence of Death.
