Ugh...I was really hoping for this to be done right on vinyl (the single LP version we have now is LAUGHABLE) but I fear these songs won't be given the room to breathe either.

FNAC has a double LP listed so let’s see.

“Voici la liste des titres, les versions digipack et 2LP ont le disque 1 et le disque 2, la version book set contient le CD 3 supplémentaire de démos inédites. Les titres en jaune «Rosebud» et «Studies in Paralysis» sont également inédits.”

Here is the list of tracks, the digipack and 2LP versions have disc 1 and disc 2, the book set version contains the additional CD 3 of unreleased demos. The titles in yellow “Rosebud” and “Studies in Paralysis” are also unreleased.

But…. I assume there will be a box that includes it all.

GATS and TIMT didn't have an everything box (other than a tat bundle, but separate items)

You’re right - more likely not to be a box.

More likely a book with photographs like the GATS box.
But have they got the actual cover from the album now?
We'll find out.

Just had a thought.

I think Epicentre (track ten) ends and then Epicentre (track twelve) is the “happy black days” part.

YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!

KYE re-issue is nearly a fact!!! I'm waiting for the official announcement. An autumn KYE anniversary UK tour is a must with a London or Cardiff Christmas gig to close it!! It would be a tragedy for us the fans and a commercial crime for the band not to launch a tour for the re-issue.

Let's go lads!!

Tell you what, if they just did two dates and played the tracks across the two new track listings that would be amazing but that's never going to happen is it??

If the release date of 18th August is accurate then it's three days before my birthday so I can safely ask the wife to buy it for me!

Awesome news, quite curious that masses has been integrated into the album as it was advertised as being a standalone release originally.
Really miss the inclusion of DVDs as well.

I remember James saying at the time the band were "closer to the end than the beginning". Touching wood and all things going well, I could easily see the band still going for another 20 years.

So I would guess at there being

1: Vinyl (no colour options but I could be wrong)

2: Digipack 2CD

3: Gats/TIMT style 3CD

4: Super Tat Bundle where everything is signed (and a Neil Howells T-Shirt)

Suppose it will be announced next week now?

Covers album still greyed out on Spotify too so a double blow to end the week on :(
