O.K now to confuse matters even more.

On checking the CD Zone listing they list the following

Aliens double limited LP EBSLP 118
Aliens limited digipak CD EBSCD 118

As you may have spotted these are the catalogue numbers for the EBS
releases of Alien4
But also listed is

Alien4 ESBLP 118
Alien4 ESBCD 118

Very similar but with the B & S reversed

Now checking at CD Now
They list Aliens as a release on Griffin Music / Gopaco but no cat No is given
Checking the Griffin site (Updated 7th July) there is no mention of Aliens

As neither Alien4 or Area S4 has been released by Griffin I suspect it is
going to be one or the other. At the moment my money is on Aliens being the
Griffin release of Alien4.

Wish someone would buy it and put us all out of our misery <bg>
