The album was re-released in 2002 by Renascent Records in a remastered version. This release included the 1982 single "Hothouse." This is not included as a separate track, but as a continuation of New Dark Age - before his death, Adrian Borland had stated that the reissues should have the same track order and listing as the originals, and this was a way of getting around this while still respecting his wishes.
