A demo version was leaked in November 2018, along with two mixes of a track called Deth Angels and a track called Cryptid, which would later become Darkseid on the final version of Miss Anthropocene. This demo had more vocals and less high pitched vocals. It’s also a fair bit longer than the final version of the song, containing a bridge and post-chorus that was not included in the final version.
