no idea why it was reissued in 2010 tbh

To get the proper version of the title track on it.
I did get that twelve disc version, one was missing so it was a tenner.
'All of my thoughts"' is about a minute longer.

Y'know, I still think this record is easily as good as OK Computer, and felt just as ambitious as that record even at the time. It's a superior "break-up record" to Blur's 13 too, IMO.

Remember when they won that Brit award, and Kate left her table where she was sitting with The Verve to go up with Jason and the rest of the band, smile, and then went back to her table again?
Shortest band reunion ever.

No, I don't! Did that even happen? I can't remember Spiritualized being nominated for a Brit in 1997/1998. I know The Verve definitely were.

Looked it up, it was the NME awards, back when they got televised I guess.

Ah, right! Yeah, that makes sense... NME put this record ahead of OK Computer in their EOY list, iirc!

The Fatboy Slim tape off the front of the already-split Kate / Jason LAGWAFIS NME cover still holds up imo

It's been almost 20 years, month for month, and against all odds I now enjoy this album far more than I used to. It has… aged well?

Best album packaging ever.

The packaging hasn't aged as well as the album, mine is in tatters.

Was gonna say, mine's completely knackered too.

Same. Squashed and warped to buggery.
