The limited digipack edition includes one bonus track ("Eternal Ban") and a videoclip for "Total Desaster". The 2-LP version does not include the bonus track and the running order of the tracks is partly different. A sequel to this album titled 'Thrash Anthems II' was released in November 2017, 10 years after the release of the original Thrash Anthems and also features a compilation of other classic songs that have been newly re-recorded.
