Nothing Is Sound – Switchfoot (CD, Canada): version 1
Saved 2026-09-26 21:11 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added the Canadian CD of Switchfoot – Nothing Is Sound (Columbia / Sony BMG 8-2876-77642-2, barcode 0828767764221), named by family/nothing-is-sound. Identity, credits, matrix/SID codes and track list come from Discogs release 6952784; MusicBrainz release 6b323a2e has the same barcode and catalogue number but a US release event, which is recorded as a disputed identity gap. Relations: marketed_by Sony BMG Music Entertainment and distributed_by Sony Music Entertainment Canada (formerly Sony BMG Music (Canada) Inc.), both per Discogs; gs1_prefix_owner is derived. Markets: CA from Discogs; US from a Walmart.com pre-owned listing that prints the barcode (USD 5.99, out of stock, 2026-09-26). The Amazon.ca and Amazon.com searches found only the DualDisc (CN96427), Capitol Christian and Japanese editions, so both stores are recorded as research gaps. The cover is requested from Cover Art Archive through musicbrainz_images.. Current is v2.
