Its Fire's new cover for the album (see also Freaks, I think 'It' is the same) as part of the whole remaster, repackage project.

I wonder what input the band have had in this at all. Probably nowt short of having the last say on the tracklistings.

I never liked Jarvis' deep throaty John Major voice in those early days and it seems even more throaty on the new version of Little Girl...

What is that Separations cover? It's not the one on iTunes...

That Separations cover is truly shocking. I've seen club flyers that are better than that. I can't believe that the band had anyhting to do with that monstrosity, at least I hope not!

Interesting about that Seppy artwork. I wonder if that was created by Fire especially for the remasters or whether it was an alternative version from back in 1992?

Outside of this thread I don't remember ever hearing Separations being given the nickname ''Seppy'' but I kinda dig it.

 

 

Oh and I had a quick flick through the new editions of Mojo and Q to see if there was much in the way of reissue reviews. I couldn't find anything in Mojo and Q gave them a brief write-up in a sidebar about various pending reissues, under a similar pic to the one in Uncut. (Ironic really, considering Tim, Jarvis and Saskia did that photoshoot for the one official release that has not been included in these reissues, the songs from the Everybody's Problem single). I think they gave It and Freaks two stars and er, Seppy, three.

The new separations (go on then... seppy) artwork is pretty abysmal in my opinion - too many layers and the shade of green and murky yellow which are also in the original are quite unpleasant.

Also, 'The Only Way is Down' - nice one Eamonn!

 Yeah but it's not that cover on itunes (special edition or original) and it's not that cover in the magazine article.

 

Just for the record though... I hate all three covers equally!

Full-length reviews from DrownedInSound:

Watch the below clip from about 9 minutes to get the gameshow reference in the first paragraph (they were only 10 years out! Channel4 should send them the 'It' reissue as a consolation prize!)

"Death Comes to Town is downright Superfluous"! Erm, isn't Death Goes to the Disco the downright superfluos track in this instance? Take it out and replace it with Rattlesnake immediately.

Absolutely. A great shame that Rattlesnake still doesn't get an official release, especially considering its' prominent place on The Beat Is The Law II.

Just been in HMV in Newcastle (one of the bigger stores - three storeys) and (well you know they've got all the columns of CD's and each column is split into what I would call steps each with about six CDs on) there were three empty steps under P for Pulp reserved for the three new reissues.

I was expecting them to just have a couple of each all squashed onto one step - seems they're a bigger deal than I realised.
