Announced today are the long awaited and highly anticipated 2015 editions of Roger Waters' 1992 album, Amused To Death, which come in a variety of editions, all boasting new artwork and packaging.
Released on July 24th, 2015, the various iterations of the album are sure to be popular. Since news broke about James Guthrie's work on the album, demand to hear the surround version of ATD has been extremely high - with just one public airing at the Princeston university conference covered elsewhere on our site.
The 2015 editions of Amused to Death will be available on:
CD
CD / Blu-ray
SACD
Hi-res digital download
2LP 200 gram vinyl (pressed at Quality Record Pressings)
Limited edition, numbered 2LP picture disc vinyl
Standard 2LP vinyl
The CD + Blu-ray edition, and the SACD edition, of Amused To Death both features the new 5.1 surround remix of the album in high definition. The artwork and packaging has been updated for 2015 by Sean Evans, the creative director of Waters' 2010-2013 The Wall Live tour and movie (which is yet to have a commercial release, despite its Canadian screenings). The standard CD edition, as well as the vinyl editions, feature the newly remastered stereo mix of the album.
