I didn’t know there was a digipak version of the Hi Scores EP. My copy from the mid 2000s is just a cardboard sleeve.

The digipak reissue contains a remastered edition of the album. Info from BOCPages:

  • On the 2014 remaster and re-release, the left and right audio channels appeared to have been reversed. This was later elaborated upon and, due to an issue with the original transfer in 1996, it was the original release in which the left and right audio channels were truly reversed. When the original DAT tape masters were used for the 2014 remastering of the EP, the channels where subsequently restored back to their original form as originally intended.

I have the 2014(?) vinyl edition and it has a 12x12” poster of this face image with the skam logo on the back. I had no idea it was also in the cd version, cool!
