Surely such a silly tune can't fit into all your "The Wake were dead miserable an' that" rhetoric?

This has already been delayed twice. Looks like it may finally be happening come January. The tracklisting is different than Palatine and in my opinion better. Complied by Jon Savage, essay by Paul Morley, and artwork by Peter Saville. I hope it comes with lots of extra goodies.

anyone following the cerysmatic factory board is probably aware now that tony's son found a bunch of factory master tapes in their house while clearing stuff out.. including section 25 and stockholm monsters (though apparently not the wake)
