Actually surprised to see what some people don't like the piano in Found That Soul, it's brilliant.

I'll add myself as another fan of the one note piano in found that soul, i thought it was a bit of a stooges-esque homage to give it that punky sound.
I remember james once saying he was going through a phase of the one string solo which gives us the majestic solo in the everlasting.

Personally think reissues should stay as per the original, but include any b-sides / new material on another tracklisting. Think there are enough b-sides, rarities and covers from that era to make up an album of it's own. The Everything Must Go and Send Away the Tigers reissues were good examples and almost worth buying for the b-side collections alone.

Whilst I agree with you to a point, in 2021 when many still buy physical releases but most seem to exclusively listen to digital versions either via Spotify, mp3 or flac, tracklisting seems a "serving suggestion" at best.

Worth noting they changed the tracklisting of SATT proper for the re-release... at least in the case of KYE there's an argument that what they're doing has some validity given it was how the album was initially conceived.

I'm assuming they would master the two albums differently, one for a more aggressive sound, one for a more melodic one... so maybe I'm talking myself out of this after all...?

Well it's still being worked on between shows or being mastered as we wait then. (Running joke for thread skippers)

You're giving way too much credit here for the band who lazily swapped tracks in past two re-releases without putting any consideration on where the new songs would play on the album.

Considering I think Walk Me To The Bridge and Still Snowing In Sapporo may be the greatest album closers they'll ever write, perhaps besides NSAF, you might have a point here...

Does he ever have to work on you for a title?

“The only time we’ve been a bit confused was Know Your Enemy. Nick wanted it to be two separate records, one to be called Door To The River and one to be called Sand In The Grass. Solidarity and Glasnost were knocking around as titles too, but in the end, it became Know Your Enemy. The plan didn’t emerge then as he wanted and I think he regrets that. I think he wanted a double album with two titles. That was fuelled by indecision.”


That must be fresh because it’s 20 years this year, are you planning to reissue it?

“Nick’s knocking it about now. He enjoys the reissues. He collects all the hotel stationery from every stop, all the ticket stubs, all the ephemera from an album and the tours that follow, every note from me on a demo. He’s got it all in Stanley Kubrick-esque storage boxes and he gets it out and he really likes trying to make sense of the past. He loves curating and re-imagining our old albums. He’s asking me a lot of questions about it at the moment, not sure if he’s taken in the answers yet…”

I would humbly submit 'PCP'
