Originally released at a 1995 Halloween show at Ear-Xtacy. Cover Art by Jeremy DeVine, founder of Temporary Residence, Ltd.. The CD packaging is a digi-pack (rarely seen in '95); the booklet innards are printed on an odd vellum-like semi-transparent paper that is thick like 110lb. card paper.
Repressed in 2023 via Mind Over Matter Records, with an alternate limited version released on Black Friday 2023. Both versions sold out quickly online.

The re-envisioned version of Bardstown Ugly Box that you see/hear before you was painstakingly created over the course of multiple years, with the band working closely with Steve Evetts (mixing engineer) and Brian Luken (mastering engineer) to ensure that the source audio was properly updated and that nothing was compromised in the process. The end result is incredible, breathing new life into a classic record. Longtime fans will find that it is akin to hearing the album for the very first time while folks who are new to the legacy of Guilt will be blown away by the power of these songs put to tape nearly 3 decades earlier. The addition of two bonus tracks allowed us the space to add an extra record into the world, and we opted to press them onto a standalone seven inch. This way, purists can continue to enjoy Bardstown Ugly Box as they've always known it and everyone gets the opportunity to hear previously unavailable tracks separate from the original track listing.
