With Printed Inner. UPC: 0191401214216 Standard vinyl version of Alive in the Catacombs , housed in a single pocket jacket with a printed inner sleeve featuring behind-the-scenes photos taken by long-time collaborator Andreas Neumann. The AITC film and subsequent audio release is QOTSA distilled down to their most elemental form--Joshua Homme, Troy Van Leeuwen, Michael Shuman, Dean Fertita and Jon Theodore augmented by a three-piece string section, employing chains and chopsticks as makeshift percussion instruments. Entirely unfiltered, as every song was recorded live in a complete take with no overdubs or edits. The audio was recorded by Mark Rankin, Francois-Xavier Delaby, Henri d'Armancourt and Alban Lejeune, and was produced by Mark Rankin. Final mixes by Mark Rankin, Joshua Homme and Michael Shuman.
