Aside from the two vocal tracks, this volume seems two 'halves'.
The first half consists of most of the serious, dramatic, and action tracks, the second half features the various everyday, comedic, and lighthearted bits.

The booklet contains some of the only anime stype promo artwork- imposed over caps from the anime. There are printed lyrics (in japanese) for the OP and ED songs.

V.2 is not as clearly laid out as V.1, but tracks are still mostly grouped by 'type'-
eg.- military theme, action theme, silly theme, quiet theme.

The booklet artwork features only arm-slaves- design figures for the M9, ARX-7, and Gaulun's, along with tech spec profiles for all three- all imposed over a collage of caps relevant to each machine.

There are also japanese lyrics for track 29 'Take Me Out Mariana Trench' (as it is in the booklet).
(the song repeats the line 'take me out trench', which is wildly funny considering this show did damn good on english usage...)

I personally prefer V.2, not that it matters

Pony Canyon, which released the cds, has incorrect tracks listed for V2. Retailers followed suit- incorrect lists. They show V2 identical to V1, with the extra songs added.
I'm working on it, but if you already have it done,
would you consider donating them?
