I wonder: will the packaging share the trans-Atlantic dichotomy of ĭn′terview, where the European release uses a mini-LP-style sleeve and the American release uses a digipak?

Well, this listing confirms the European release will be in a digisleeve:

CD/Blu-Ray in tri-fold digisleeve...

Still hoping the American release will be in a digipak instead, as I prefer discs in trays and that it matches my other GG/SW releases.

Its also available from Townsend Music Online Record Store - Vinyl, CDs, Cassettes and Merch - Gentle Giant - The Missing Piece 2024 Steven Wilson Remix

Out of curiosity I did a comparison and stuck with the Shed as it was £21.75 + £2.74 P&P = £24.49, whereas Townsend was £21 + £5 P&P = £26.

Edit: My first purchase of the year!

I've been waiting for a remix of this one since it was first discussed decades ago. This is one album that I'm certain can only be improved by the remix. It's a definite departure, and not all tracks are winners, but it sure will be nice to hear a more well-balanced mix of this album finally.

Yup, for me, it's really the 3rd,4th and 5th songs that are the worst. Get past those and you should find more gold.

Never got into this band; but as a fan of SW and at that price, what the hell

Amazon US has it for pre-order now for $22.98, out on Feb. 16th.

This is a group I learned to appreciate thru the Steven Wilson remixes. I can recall seeing their album covers way back when but never listened to them. It took me a while to get used to their vocal style but now I like it and have picked up all of these reissues.
