Inferno was actually released in limited quantity through Music for Nations (Koch International affiliate) here in the U.S. but was later pulled from the shelves. I'm pretty sure the version The End has is the import since they aren't allowed to sell the domestic version. I'm sure that some stores still have the version that was pulled back, either because they aren't aware they aren't supposed to be selling it, or they're too lazy to mail the cd's back to the distributor.
Anyway, here's the word straight from the horses mouth (Entombed's website):
"Koch international, has already released the album in the states. But, did it without letting the band know, and without having a contract signed for the record. It is not really Koch int. fault, as MFN gave them the album in belief that it was the right thing to do.
The album has been pulled back in the states, and will be released in the beginning of next year by Threeman rec. through Century Media rec USA."
