Ordered this directly from the distributor (hence why I have it before the UK release date), and it truly is a brilliant set to have. The artwork is top-notch (no surprise, coming from artist Jhonen Vasquez), it includes all of the art he did for the album (including the cover of the deluxe version) in high resolution quality and is worth buying just for this reason alone.
The album itself is pretty good, though no-where near as good as YRTA, FGWSSS or Tight, but passable, despite a few throwaway tracks. The overall arrangement seems a lot better as well, with a reworked track listing spread across two Vinyl disks.
The main complaint I have is how, unfortunately the vinyl is treated as a second-hand product by the producers of the set, who made the ridiculous decision to include NO BONUS TRACKS. I mean, why?
The Clean version of the album gets the bonus track 'Uncle' (presumably because they feel sorry for them), and the UK version gets 'Uncle', 'S3' and FOUR remixes of 'Never Wanted to Dance' (because they feel really sorry for us!). Vinyl owners get squat.
But for collectablity and the artwork, it's well worth getting. Just download the other tracks.
