We allowed to talk about the 2nd disc?

Personally I found it much more interesting than the main album. Not that the main album is bad, it's just not Dev's best effort, imo.

It is breathtaking!!!! The whole album is just insane for me.

People that purchased VIPs for the NA tour are starting to receive the album download link. I got mine a few days ago. They said they were still awaiting their shipment of the physical double cd's so in the meantime they were giving us the digital version.

The 2nd disc has some gems!! I can never figure out how they decide what goes on and what's stays off the "main" CD.

Where to get CD with Japanese tracks if you are not Japanese?

I ordered mine through CDjapan.co.jp. Ordered a couple of other stuff while I was at it :-)

^Yep, that's where I got mine. Not as expensive as some other sites I looked at, either.

You can also do Amazon.co.jp if you use Chrome and get it to translate the site as you use it.

I really love "Gump." Should've been on the main disc. It fits just fine.

I had a chance to buy the 2-disc edition (signed) at the Edmonton show last weekend, but spent my money on a tour shirt and beer instead. I wish I could have bought both at the time, but oh well. No regrets.

This is exactly my favourite set as well.

The new version of Truth sounds more like a live performance. I can't decide if it's better. IMO nothing can beat the original "hallelujah" part from Infinity.

Listened to the second disc a few times now, and I must say that 'Loud' really stands out. Beautiful.

First proper listen tonight and I am enamoured with Secret Sciences, Higher and Transcendence. I also liked the ambient extension of Transdermal Celebration. I'll listen to the second disc later.
Verdict on the Japanese bonus tracks:
Sophie's Boobies: A fun little Ziltoid track, good for a laugh.
Young Gods: Basically Dev talking over (or under) a mostly uninteresting electro mix. At least his speech is worth a listen.
Wolves: Nice and mid-tempo, sounds like it would fit right in with the main album, or Sky Blue for that matter.

Can anyone tell which song(s) Che Aimee Dorval is on? I honestly have no idea.
