I thought Mark sends the record company all the songs, and they decide which will be B-sides/Bonus songs. But, I am sure Mark must give approval, hence Terminal of Tribute To not being on Tracker!!

The three bonus songs should have been on the album, especially "Don't Suck Me In", because it is a DS style of song.  I wonder who decides which songs go on the album?    :think   ::)

I second that. I don't know who was the genius behind it but unless they don't care at all about sales that was the dumbest decision ever made.

I seem to remember reading Ed Bicknell had a say on which songs ended up on the albums which may have contributed to some commercial success and may also have seen the change in style after STP when he "left."  I'm positive he'd have pushed to have Don't Suck Me In on that record!

0 promotion 0 sales.

That could certainly be a reason, but in Germany there was no promotion to and yet the album is also in the 2nd week in the top 5.

He could be higher I think.
I really see no cheaper Standard CD edition on e.g. Amazon which costs around EUR 12.
Here you have to buy the EUR 16/17 Deluxe Edition which could be too much Money for normal CD buyers and non fans.
A bit strange
