OH WOW. Great news!
I feel like this is the year of various reissues of theirs, with the two Imperial-era books coming with new covers and extra material. And now this? I wonder, will a new Greatest Hits happen too?

Greetings,

Excellent news!

Side note - the author of that article, Cameron Adams was the first person to ever hand out 10/10 for an album in Beat magazine... and upon what album did he bestow that honour? It was Discography.

Side, side note - I DJ'ed with him once. Nice guy. It was around the turn of the century and my most vivid memory of it was debating with him whether the David Morales or Felix Da Housecat mix of I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give It Anymore was the superior version.

Retro. :)

And the song New boy (written around the same time as Rent) will be released as a B-side for the new single? Does that mean it's confirmed there will be a 4th single from Hotspot?

It's been confirmed for a while. They were talking to the guy who was doing remixes for it in a podcast last month

I reckon it's between Happy People and Hoping for a miracle.


Great news - that 3rd B-sides album is coming along nicely!

I'm not mad they're releasing one B-side per single. We've had two EPs last year and more than 20 new songs in the past 12 months. (It's also the one year-ish anniversary of Agenda!)

Because they are going back to their heyday releases :wink:

Since it's being released by the British Film Institute I doubt they will include anything PSB not related to the film.
BFI releases do normally come with a good range of extras, sometimes a booklet as well. The stuff Ive bought recently have been dual format i.e. blu ray and DVD combo
