I know, I'm thinking they should really release a coloured vinyl edition of this album with no extras and charge, say £400 or something? Much better value for money for an item that will probably never be played. Oh well!

At least the Yes box set has value as a commodity. Snow Globe plus an Erasure cracker and Andy's baubles is hardly value for money.

£400 Value for money for a vinyl box set? Anyway I'm talking about the Electric one. The Erasure Snow Globe boxset will also be a collectable, just like the Tomorrows world one already is. Or am I wrong?

The Snow Globe box set is tacky, much like the group itself. Why not sell a box set actually modelled on a snow globe? No, instead they've opted for the cheap, tawdry option - here's the album, a demo of Andy singing My Chestnuts are Roasting on an Open Fire, and a couple of toys left over from last year's crackers.

I'm surprised that a picture of Pughie with his hand on some pussy hasn't broken the internet.

Been listening to Tomorrow's World to night, its a fine album, to short, but their best album since Erasure from 1995. They still have it in them.

I've listened to it quite often since it's release too, I really like it too, it is short but the 2cd version sort of makes up for it with some good demos and extended versions. I was going through bad time in France at that time so it does remind me a bit of that but is also a kind of release because of that too. Great album, hoping the Xmas one isn't too bad either, I thought the samples sounded OK actually.

Haven't heard the samples, but I have placed an order for the special limited edition box, I like christmas albums. So keeping my fingers crossed. I like the Silent Night sample.

I'm certain that Snow Globe will deliver everything we expect.....and more.

We get it, you don't like it, them etc. fine and good for you. Some people do like them though and still like what they are doing. I would say that if you don't like them then just ignore them, why this obsession with slagging them off for everything they do? They still have a decent fanbase, the snow globe limited edition has just about sold out I believe which is pretty good really. And it may not be amazing but I think it's a decent Christmas album and something they have wanted to do for a while now. So good on them for doing it.
