was gonna preorder them because my store likely won't have that many copies (i'm getting some for others too), and it says the link doesn't exist. :headscratch :/

It's a relatively new announcement so it should be fixed soon

But I'm wondering if this is strictly just a limited pre-order bonus or a BB store exclusive like the past albums have been. I'd guess the latter aka you still get the track if you purchase at BB when it's released

The Best Buy version with 'Breathe' included can be still found but they've (for some reason) changed the name of it to LAST HERO

So you're saying the last two tracks are called The Last Hero, and Last Hero? Why not just call that version of the record "Redundancy."

Nawww, the album title is listed as "Last Hero." Breathe is still there as a bonus track.

You know what they should've done? Just made a double album. 20 songs. They are already at 15 with the Best buy listing. Just include the other ODR b-sides On My way now, solace, Cruel sun, and I guess the real "Outright" and you have 19 songs. Then another would make 20.

One can dream.

I'd honestly rather they put an album of only B-sides in 18 months or so, to tide us over while they break off to their respective side projects. Now that would be sick!

What I think would be properly awesome and also realistic* would be to do a full acoustic live set, pro recorded, where as well as the usual acoustic numbers (and previously unheard stuff live like All Ends Well, maybe even Words Darker) they also finally get versions of Solace and Cruel Sun out there, and a decent quality version of On My Way Now. Stick that somewhere in Europe and you'd sell out somewhere big, release the audio as a live EP (no need to spend ages editing film footage) and I would pay much monies.

This is all obviously not going to happen, not least because I'm near certain Myles has long forgotten the lyrics to those older tracks and they're pushed for time enough as it is, but I can dream.

*EDIT - On reflection, a more appropriate term may be "possible within the realm of physics".
For all of the hope that it brings...
