The Japanese and the Driven Downunder Tour '94 Souvenir Collection editions contain a bonus thirteenth track, "The Badge", a Poison Idea cover. This cover was also featured on The Crow soundtrack. Pantera's fastest-selling album, it peaked at number 1 on the Billboard 200 and was certified Platinum by the RIAA. The album was also certified Platinum by the Canadian Recording Industry Association. While not as acclaimed as their prior albums, it has still received widespread critical acclaim, and its first two singles, I'm Broken and 5 Minutes Alone are among the band's most popular and acclaimed songs.
