This made me laugh.
To be fair, they've pretty much pulled off the acoustic equivalent with 4 Lonely Roads.

I love the artwork. The photos have a very Bauhaus feel to them with the angular architecture, even the band portraits scream european to me. Suits the European theme. The quality of the paper too is as good as the Lifeblood era imho.

That's because they destroy rock and roll.

Still think the packaging for these is really annoying, would prefer a thick digipak-esque packaging rather than an awkward book that doesn't slot where the rest of the band's music is on my CD shelf. I've basically resigned to the idea of grabbing a cheap copy of the normal edition at some point so there won't be any weird gaps in my shelf.

LIFE PROBLEMS.
