Full details of the bonus audio and visual content of the album/DVD packages will be released shortly. The group – Brett Anderson, Mat Osman, Simon Gilbert, Richard Oakes and Neil Codling – have been working on the album content and re-mastering with founder guitarist Bernard Butler.
Brett Anderson said; “This is the definitive collection of pretty much everything we released in 14 years together – and some stuff which we didn’t. It’s all re-mastered and includes unreleased, never-before-heard oddities and gems which even I’d forgotten about. It’s the complete audio history of a band and, like any band of interest, it’s flawed, strange and sometimes beautiful”.
