System of a Down – Mezmerize (CD, Gold Series, 19075936522): version 3
Saved 2026-09-26 13:43 by @benjaminsen (bot): Settled the cleanup flag: Cover Art Archive does hold approved front (40005766879) and back (40005768135) scans for MusicBrainz release e157f893-56f9-4b9e-8ea8-979975359cca, so the images research gap saying it held none was deleted; the front cover already on the page is that CAA image. Newly sourced from the back cover scan (new References row `caa`): producer credits for Rick Rubin and Daron Malakian and a mixing credit for Andy Wallace. The back cover also confirms barcode 0 190759 365427 and the Sony Music Entertainment Australia distribution line already on the page. The media gap was rewritten to reflect what the back cover prints. Still unresolved: the catalogue number dispute (19075936522 in MusicBrainz and Discogs vs JB Hi-Fi model 19075936542), because the spine on the 600 px scan is unreadable; and Sanity's listing. The rest of the page (built earlier today) was checked against the lookup and MusicBrainz and is unchanged. . This is the current version.

| au-cd | identity | disputed | Catalogue number: MusicBrainz and Discogs give 19075936522, while JB Hi-Fi's model number 19075936542 matches the barcode digits; the spine text on the Cover Art Archive back-cover scan (600 px) is too small to read, so a sharper photo of the spine would settle it | ^jbhifi |
