Answer: Anyone for Doomsday?

Technically this record never came out. Originally slated for a summer/fall release in 2001, the album was delayed and then finally scrapped. But that's not to say that copies aren't out there. There are a ton of copies, both promotional/advance and retail, floating around on Ebay.
