I guess I am a real hippster now-a-days, I am totally into cassettes. Maybe it is because I actually own a fairly decent cassette player. Or maybe I am really just that odd. Anyway, when there is a new release coming and it is on cassette, you know I am going to be all over that. Thank you to EMPiRE for filling that void in my idol collection. Lets get a look at it.
First off, from what I gather, this will be just like the last release in the fact that it is cassette only, no CD version. Yeah, folks get cranky about it, but at least they offer a digital code with it (at least they did on the last one).
This release will come in four versions, so there should be one to suit everyone.
This will be a bit of a long listing, but stay with me. there is a video at the end. Also, there is no cover art yet.

I am a big fan of the first release and I am pretty excited to hear all the original tracks re-recorded with the new line up. This just looks like a really good release, maybe I am a bit of a fanboy but I just love WACK box sets. They are always just so good.
They also released this live video of one of the songs that will be on the Blu-ray/DVD
