Brap: Back & Forth, Volume 3 & 4
Brap: Back & Forth, Volume 3 & 4 is a double-CD compilation from the industrial band Skinny Puppy, released in April 1996. It gathers rarities rather than new studio work. The first disc is mostly instrumental demos, with vocals on only two tracks and a few scattered vocal samples. The second disc is made up largely of live cuts, with just two or three studio tracks among them. Dave McKean created the cover art.
It arrived in the same year as The Process, the band's tenth studio album, so it sits as a companion piece for dedicated listeners. The discs are also enhanced CDs, including a 3D-style virtual reality interface based on Too Dark Park and a virtual walk through the artwork of the Spasmolytic single. It reached number 9 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers chart.
