| observation | domain | state | detail | source |
| ----------- | ------------- | -------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------- |
| us-cd-death | images | unknown | No openly licensed cover photo found. The Cover Art Archive holds five scans (front and back), but cover art is copyrighted and no licence is stated, so none are attached. | ^musicbrainz |
| us-cd-death | markets | not_researched | Discogs lists Canadian releases (2797159, 25665847) and a US club edition (36398038) with catalogue number EK 92934; whether they carry this barcode was not checked, so only US is listed. | ^discogs-master |
| us-cd-death | schema | schema_gap | The pack carries two label imprints, Epic and Daylight, both with catalogue number EK 92934 (MusicBrainz types Daylight as the original production label). Release.label takes one brand, so Daylight is recorded in About only. | ^discogs |
| | relationships | unknown | No public source names the GS1 licensee of prefix 0827969, so the gs1_prefix_owner row is derived. It is not established whether the 2003 "Sony Music Entertainment Inc." on the Korn CD is the same legal entity as the Delaware company GLEIF dates to 2004. | ^gleif-sme |
| us-cd-death | identity | disputed | Track durations differ by one second between MusicBrainz and Discogs/Wikipedia on tracks 1, 3, 6, 8, 11, 12 and 15; the Tracks table follows MusicBrainz. | ^discogs |
| us-cd-death | evidence | not_researched | Whether this edition is still manufactured or sold new was not established, so status and last_seen are blank. | |
