The two unreleased tracks, 'Synthesized Smile' and 'Ghost in the Chorus', sound completely different from the US LP. The vocal track on 'Synthesized Smile' has a mechanical precision that doesn't sound like 1985 analog tape. Kamome sysop says there were three more reels in the box that haven't been dumped yet.
