Note: this album was officially unreleased in May 2002 and made available to a select number of fans for preview in a special "party pack" to be played in small congregations. This pack contained a covering letter, playing instructions, a poem and the CD itself. The CD contains 28 tracks but only 17 are listed as songs, the others being "incidental".
The first official release of Demons Dance Alone was the "Deluxe Edition", a limited edition of 3000 numbered copies with a bonus CD. The CDs are contained in a hardback book with lyrics and a velvet-effect outer sleeve.
"Life would be wonderful" is renamed "Mr. Wonderful" in the Deluxe Edition.
