Album reissues not sponsored by Faith No More

With the recent news of reissues of two of Faith No More’s most popular albums, both coming out on June 9th, the band felt it necessary to issue a statement that the release was without their involvement.

Said Faith No more via Facebook:

“Most of you have probably heard news about upcoming Angel Dust and Real Thing reissues, and the latest statements seem imply that these are band sponsored releases. In fact, they are Warners/Rhino re-issues (who still own the license to them). This is not to say that they are not worth getting…it’s just that they are not coming from us. Hope that makes sense. Thanks.”

The band is releasing their new album, Sol Invictus, on May 19th through their own label, Reclamation Records. Since 1987s Introduce Yourself, their last five studio albums were released through Warner / Slash / Rhino.

The reissues won’t feature any unreleased material, but the CD version will feature a slew of live, B-side, and remixed songs from both albums below. The vinyl offering will offer, “only a selection of the rarities added.”
