Re: Special Editions of new album
If we're talking a reissue of the classic Underworld catalogue, then absolutely, the Pixies set is the model. I'm not even a big Pixies fan and I want it. The package is also created in collaboration with the same design outfit who made those NIN things.

What I think Underworld should avoid is a Depeche Mode Sounds of the Universe situation. That release crossed over into silly and greedy.

That Pixies idea is great and all but its a big exploitation of their fans.. simply to break even on the sales of the cd... there is nothing respectful about it, simply the band selling their signatures and doing it in Gold too...

There should defo be special editions but be realistic and nice about it... it would be a huge change of character to turn around and charge copious amounts of cash for a video and some squiggle from Karl and Rick...

Music... just want music.. merci..

Re: Special Editions of new album
The cover art reminds me of those 80s posters people had: neon lights, white-faced chickies with sunglasses on, bright red lipstick.

It also looks a lot like every 10th image on ffffound.com.

Thankfully, I don't buy Underworld albums for the covers.
