Funny....I got to thinking about the Japanese CD as well for this album. Had a look on Japan site for Amazon and nothing as of yet. They did good with the release of Future Past (bonus tracks AND a print), so hopefully this album will have a least a bonus track...that is if the band decided to do more covers than the ones that made the album. These Japanese bonus tracks are always announced at the last minute for some reason (but almost all Japanese CDs have them). It can always be a dodgy remix or alternative mix of one of the tracks of course. Or one of the live tracks from the Halloween show last year. But who knows? |

Not sure if this clip has been posted already, 🤷♂️ I’m happy to delete if it has
I like Mr Hudson, on the road to medazzaland doco I thought he did good and from that, I understand that he “gets” DD
His work thus far on DM IMO is promising

Yeah i agree with the 90s version of SO. I think I'll enjoy the tracks the more they seperate themselves from the original. I can imagine other fans feeling like the band are ruining a song they cherish though. No one would bat an eye if they were re-working Dirty Great Monster 😂 I’m not it in the “remake ruins the original” of anything camp because the original still exists. If a remake replaced an original, that would definitely be a problem. Yes exactly. I feel similarly about the night versions and various remixes- if you like it, play it…otherwise, skip it and just keep listening to the original. (I realize a “remix” isn’t exactly a 1:1 to what is happening here, but close enough for this discussion). Ideally we’ll get a “Perfecto Out of My Mind” scenario with a great original and great remix / alt version… |

He is clearly a DD fan and apparently he is a sweet and easy going person. Plus he is from Birmingham. No wonder the band likes to work with him. |

Totally agree p194 Quote “not sure what genre this is?” that’s exactly what art (in our case) ‘audio art’ should be Thought provoking, different, unable to be categorised, discussion creating, social, the application of creative skill and imagination. BH puts it so well ‘prehistoric and futuristic’ what I love most (thus far of what we’ve heard) is that it’s radically different to his work on PGs Like, why recreate what he’s already achieved with DD? it’s all too exciting really |

While PG is not my favorite album, the more I learn about Mr Hudson, the more I like. As ATR said, he came across well in the Road to Medazz doc. He is good friends with and former roommate of Jake Shears, who he played on Whoosh when he was a guest. I just checked out his Instagram, and apparently he’s vegan and has an adopted dog! 🙂

His daughters were regularly liking and commenting on his posts a while back. Saw some photos of them hanging out at events together a while back too. |

It’s still US/can only at the moment. Has anyone from uk been able to order a copy? Only people who have friends in the countries or mail forwarders. If an EU/UK person who has the email could contact Spotify Merch support to ask how non US/Canada people can purchase, then we will know. If no one in EU/UK does, then we can safely assume it's a US/Canada only version. Which is fair and fine! For a limited edition pressing, it looks like it can still be ordered. The sad thing is that there are people out there who aren't aware and bidding some $$ for it on Ebay. |

Any chance of a handful of Halloween themed live dates to accompany the album’s release - USA, Italy or UK for locations, or then again nothing ? Thoughts….
