Suite Xvi (Xvi Anniversary Edition) (Uk)

Two CD set. Digitally remastered and expanded 16th Anniversary edition of this 2006 album by the veteran British rock/punk band. Disc One features the original eleven track album. The songs cover a real range from the full-on exuberance, bouncy, infectious melody contrasts, to aggression, and topical tracks covering many, sometimes dark, subject matters within the writing and meaning of the song. Disc Two contains 12 tracks including eight previously unreleased recordings. There are blistering live takes of seven of the album tracks; six of which are previously unreleased on CD. They were mostly recorded in the UK between 2007 and 2019. The three live acoustic tracks include an unreleased solo performance by Baz of "Bless You (Save You, Spare You Damn You)".
