Release date: 25 Sep 2006.

 

So, out on Monday we have the 10th anniversary edition of their debut album. It'll be complete with a remastered CD, extra rare tracks and a DVD (apparently). If you missed this album the first time around, please make sure you don't this time. It's a really amazing album, full of raw and gritty energy and feeling. My personal favourite album of theirs.

:o I feel prehistoric. I bought the album in its original release. Saying that I was 11. lol. I will get this collectors edition, but its not top of my list

oh cool, just reliased the dvd will have live performances on. That's different!

Yeah, the DVD really wets my appetite for it, I'm 100% buying this on Monday. :dance:

I cant believe I bought this album nearly 10 years ago! :o

I know what you meen. I was just starting senior school! Still remember seeing the album cover on posters in music shops and stuff. gosh

I was only 9 when this was initially released in 1996, so of course I was too young at the time and missed out. :(

Like I say, I was only 10/11 at the time but I have always been really into music even as a young child. When I could start talking I requested Kylie to my father! lol.

:lol: I was 20 when it came out, and 21 when I bought it!

I was only 10, my elder brother bought the album back in the day and used to listen to it all the time, so in a sort of way, all these songs remind me of my childhood!

So, out tomorrow! Anyone else buying it but me?

I might celebrate the anniversary by getting the original version. It's £5 in Fopp I think.

That's still good, as it's worth it in any shape or form. I'll be getting mine on my lunch break today. :dance:

Next month when I get paid I will

I was gonna get this today, but I didn't have enough cash on me so probably tomorrow.

 

I did take a look in my local HMV and Virgin Megastores though, they had no copies on the new release wall at all.

I got this on VINYL!!! :lol: :lol: Reckon I'll probably get this Special Ed, more for the bonuses than anything else.... "Slacker b**ch" is a fun song..... :lol:

Well, I bought this today and I shall watch the DVD later.

 

The sleeve of it is good, Brian and Stefan both put in a speech in the sleeve notes about how the experience has been for them since the initial release of the album, David Bowie commented on the band and even their old drummer (Rob) left one too!

 

If anyone who doesn't have it yet wants to know what they had to say, just ask and I'll write them out and post them. (I don't have a scanner)

i hope it helps return placebo to the charts, they havnt had a great run on the album chart lately at all

I'm not sure it's even chart eligible. :unsure:

 

But even if it is, I can't see it setting the chart on fire cos it wasn't on the new release wall in any of the shops, and only the hardcore fans will be buying it (like myself :yahoo: ).

thats a shame, they really have been so very unnoticed for years now, they were never the top band at any time as there was always some one else taking the limelight for them
