Release and promotion

Implode was released on digipak CD[13] and via Zoth Ommog on gatefold cover sleeve double vinyl with limited circulation of 2,000.[14] The track "Torched" is featured in the 2002 horror film Resident Evil but not on the accompanying soundtrack.[15]

Originally, Implode was supposed to be the last Front Line Assembly release for Metropolis.[16]

Singles

Implode was followed by the release of two singles. The single "Prophecy" includes the original version, a radio edit and a remix of the title track. "Unknown Dreams" is also featured as radio edit. "Paralysis" is a non-album track.[17] The second single, "Fatalist", was released in different versions in Europe and North America. German label Zoth Ommog issued a four-track single that contains remixes of "Fatalist" (Rhys Fulber), "Retribution" (Front 242) and "Prophecy" (Haujobb) as well as non-album track "Deception".[18] The six track version was released for the Scandinavian countries through Energy and in the United States through Metropolis.[19] Additional tracks on this version are two remixes of "Fatalist" by Aqualite and Tribal Techno.

Touring

In August 1999, Front Line Assembly confirmed dates for a North America tour in October and November 1999 with Dutch rock band and label colleagues Clan of Xymox as support.[20] However, the tour was cancelled because the necessary financing could not be secured.[21]
