Formats include a limited edition wooden boxset containing splattered vinyl packaged alongside a special chalice, ring, pendant encased in a velvet bag, 20 page booklet, and most thrilling – a signed card adorned with the autographs of the album’s original songwriters. Limited to just 500 copies worldwide, diehard fans should be sure to add this unique and extremely exclusive product to their finely-curated collections! Additional variants will include a deluxe edition featuring marbled vinyl, a slipmat, a 20 page booklet and record butler, as well as retail black vinyl and digipak CD editions.
