I note that Smash is being released through Parlophone. I assume some sort of licensing deal has been reached for the x2 songs..?

White vinyl ordered - don’t think I need the others, but hopefully the box will look nice on the shelf

Good to see most of the suspected missing bits are actually there. I quite like the name, it’s funny. Although perhaps would have been smarter for the text underneath to say “Hits 1985-2020”, thus completing the pun

Yes, it must have. Psb own them, so they can of course license them.

Deliberate because, let's face it, CD3 is hardly brimming with actual hits

You should go to the official website.

It's time for a compilation (cd, vynils, DVD, merchandising, etc) because they are on a Greatest Hits tour.

But if you want something new, there is an EP on the way called lost and a new Anually on the way too, one month later.

Apart from interviews and more promotion.

And they are recording for a new album is probably being released on 2024.

Apart from tracks fo those extra musical movements (musical and theatrical shows).

But fans want more. :mrgreen:

Take it easy!

Really nice to see the expanded editions and merchandise available.

Still no exclusive content though. It's all material we already have, just packaged nicely.

Here's some pics.

I like how the vinyls, cassettes and CDs have pictures that correspond with the era for the tracks.

Who's preordering the ultimate bundle? It costs $675 Australian plus postage.
You'd have to smash your piggy bank to afford it.

I couldn't get it to work on my computer. I think the website doesn't like my browser (Firefox).

Worked fine on my phone.

Same problem for me :-( I've tried multiple browsers, devices and credit cards.

Maybe a server problem, to many people trying to order.
