Notes

On the release entitled 'Biophilia - The Manual Edition'. Limited to 2,000 copies. Only available on pre-order via Sandbag UK.

The CDs are housed inside the covers of a 48-page hardback book containing live photographs, illustrations, lyrics, liner notes and app information, with lenticular cover art. The size of the book is 24x19x1.2 cm.

Includes a reproduction of a hand-written note by Björk explaining the two-week delay in the album's release. As the book was produced before the delay and completion of additional work on Biophilia, it contains slightly different credits from the correct ones reproduced here, which appear at the bottom of the handwritten note. The note also states: "Published in September 2011 in a strictly limited edition of 2,000 copies."
