Brap: Back & Forth Series 3 & 4 is a compilation album by industrial band Skinny Puppy.[2] It was released as a double-CD in 1996. This album reached to #9 in Billboard chart's Top Heatseekers.[3] Disc one is largely instrumental demos (only two tracks feature vocals and a few others vocal samples) whereas Disc two is composed mainly of live cuts (with only two or three studio tracks). The cover art was created by Dave McKean.[4] The CD also features enhanced CD content including a 3D style VR interface based on the Too Dark Park album and a virtual walk through the art of the Spasmolytic single.
