Different Markets, Different Covers

I know Christmas is well and truly over, but one more thing on the "Holidays Rule" release before we move on.
This CD came out with the title "Holidays Rule" in the US - but for the European, UK and Australian markets we got a CD called "Christmas Rules". This is because we don't use the term "happy holidays" when talking about the Christmas break.
Here's what they both look like, beginning with the US version which comes in a sparkly, metallic, dark red and white gatefold cover:

And in the UK/EU/Australia it is called "Christmas Rules" and comes in a bright red, matt finish gatefold:

Christmas Rules booklet
The 8-page booklet (above) for both the US and the Australian/European versions appears to be the same. There is an odd website address on the rear of the booklet though. In large type at the bottom of the page of both versions it says: SEARCH PARTY, and then gives this address in smaller type: searchpartymusic.com
This is strange because that's the website for a Boston-based wedding and functions band. Not sure what's going on with that....
