Gigapus


Gigapus is the tenth studio album by the Australian electronic music group Severed Heads. Recorded between 1992 and 1994, the album was first released in 1994 with a bonus CD-ROM disc titled Metapus that had additional multi-media content on it. Because of this, it is the first album released in Australia to include a CD-ROM disc. Due to the extra disc, the album was initially priced at $40 when it first came out. As with most of the Severed Heads discography, the album has been reissued multiple times.

In 1996, a re-recorded and remixed version of "DOLLARex" was substituted for the original.
15–17 of the 2001 reissue and 1–3 of the 2009 bonus disc were originally released as B-sides of the "Heart of the Party" CD single in Australia.
