Deluxe editions of albums are getting so deluxe they basically make whole new records themselves.
Blink-182’s forthcoming reissue of their most recent record ‘California’ features eleven brand new tracks, but it looks like Gorillaz may be going even further when they drop their super deluxe vinyl box set for their new album ‘Humanz’ later this summer.
Set for release on August 25th, the super-sized package will set you back £274.99, and features 14 individual 12” coloured vinyl in individually art worked sleeves. Each contains a track from the album, with an alternate version on the flip side.
Now, an Amazon listing has revealed the track list, which includes – amongst other stuff – new collabs with Azekel and Little Simz, an alternate version of ‘Charger’ where The Selecter’s Pauline Black replaces Grace Jones, plus a number of tracks without features, including ‘Colombians’, ‘Duetz’, ‘Grilling With His Face’, and ‘Transformerz’.
Also included is a 54 page hardback book of artwork in a ‘bespoke’ 12” vinyl case.
