i would be content with just the legacy edition as it goes well with the previous two re-issues. Though i would love the boxset edition going by the last shoeboxes they put out I may leave it as a christmas present, depending on the price.

I want the book. But if I get the book, I get the vinyl, which I really don't need or have the space to keep.....

I know times are tight but is space at such a premium people can't fit a 10" vinyl somewhere?

I could put it behind the book case....

I simply don't need the vinyl, I wouldn't play it and it's probably just going to gather dust. I don't want a dusty disc.

Kind of looking forward to it. Not sure what version I will buy but it'll be a deluxe version. I'm curious as to what these "unheard" tracks are but I am only assuming they're re-mastered versions of the leaked demos from many years ago. Unless the band have just thought "Oh well, let's not use these songs for the next album and whack them on as a bonus!". If I am to take a very staggered guess then the only songs I can think of that are previously unheard of are:

Jackboot Johnny
The Hairdressers Chair
Colt 45 Rusty James
Anniversary to No-one
Aftermath 85.

Vinyls do take up a lot of space; I've got a big stack of 7 inches on one of my shelves. I used to buy lots of singles in those 3 formats for £5 offers that Recordstore did, but gave up as a) I don't even have a turntable anyway and b) finding space for them was becoming a real challenge. So anything bigger than that, I can understand people not wanting to have to find room for.

Wouldn't worry about the 10". The book will surely be bigger anyway.

It's all a matter of whether Sony are going to give us their uppermost overkill treatment. Shoeboxes are out this year at Sony HQ.

The demos will be interesting, will be nice to hear some tracks before they destroyed them! Although unlikely, despite me disliking the album i would like to see them do a one-off show playing it in full as the songs have always sounded fresher and more powerful live. Be good to hear never played tracks as well, wonder which live songs will be on the re-release? You Love Us, Motorcycle Emptiness most certainly.

I hope the DVD is of a better picture quality than NT. I should imagine its: 30 min retrospective doc, 7 (ish) promo vids plus the London gig that was filmed for MTV ("Slash N Burn" vid one).

Mildly peeved that I'll have to fork out £80 (or worse) for the 3rd CD and book.

I'm really looking forward to this, not sure what deluxe edition i'll get. Depends on the price/tracklist, i assume the one listed on amazon for £23ish is the legacy edition? Intresting about the unheard tracks, would be great to hear completely new songs though i'm guessing it'll be the Early demos and mabye the song Simon Price mentioned 'Nazi Fixation Of Happiness'. Would be great if they played a gig for the album, didn't James say if they did anything it would probably be in Japan?

The main reason why I want the Limited edition is the book.Probably the vinyl will take its place behind something else cos I don't have a proper room.I share a little one with my husband where we can put all our stuff but it's already full.

Oh my god oh my god oh my god. I'm unreasonably excited.

Also: "unseen film footage and home movies" -

I at least need the Legacy Edition, although a third CD and book would be nice, depending on what they are. I'm not sure I could afford it, though, and I can't play vinyl so that would be a waste. I'd just stare at it and alternate between smiling because it's mine and crying because I can't hear it.
