About this product
Nothing Is Sound is the fifth studio album by the American alternative rock band Switchfoot, released by Columbia Records in September 2005; it debuted at number three on the Billboard 200.[2] This barcode is the Wal-Mart exclusive US DualDisc, catalogue number CN 96535: one side holds the 12 album tracks, produced by John Fields and Switchfoot, and the other is an NTSC DVD with all 12 songs in 5.1 surround and stereo and Carl Diebold's documentary "The Making Of Nothing Is Sound".[1] Discogs notes that the audio side does not meet CD specifications and will not play on some players.[1] Unlike the standard CD, the DualDisc editions carried no XCP copy protection.[2]
Jesus Freak Hideout's review of the DualDisc described the documentary and surround mix as its main draw.[3] Wikipedia records a Walmart bonus song, "Another Christmas (Old Borego)", which Amazon's listing for a large-retailer exclusive CD edition describes as a free download.[2][4]

- media · disputed: Wikipedia says albums bought at Walmart carried the Christmas song "Another Christmas (Old Borego)" as a bonus; the Discogs tracklist for this DualDisc lists only the 12 album songs, and Amazon's "Bonus Download Track" CD edition (B003YV5X04) describes the song as a free download, so it may have come as a download rather than on the disc
- identity · disputed: Release date: Discogs gives 2005-09-26 for this edition; Wikipedia gives 13 September 2005 for the album
- markets · unknown: Amazon.com: searches for the full name with "dualdisc", for "switchfoot" and for 827969653524 on 2026-09-26 found only the standard DualDisc listing B000CDG5AY (model number CN96427), not this Wal-Mart edition
- images · unknown: No licensed cover photograph: not on Open Food Facts, and the barcode is not in MusicBrainz
- relationships · unknown: No source names the GS1 registrant of prefix 0827969; the gs1_prefix_owner edge is derived from the © and ℗ holder of the sibling Columbia CD
