This just in from Saint Etienne. The British trio will be giving Words and Music by Saint Etienne a double CD release in the U.S. There’s a catch, though. It will only be available at stops on their tour this fall.

This special release of the album, which was announced via the band’s email list, will feature a bonus disc with 10 new songs, 8 of which are previously unreleased. The double-disc is limited to 2700 copies, 300 of which are allocated for sale at each date on the tour. Each copy is $20 and they will be sold on a one-per-person basis prior to the performance. If you need extra copies, you have to wait until after the show to purchase those, provided that there are some remaining. Check out the tracklisting, taken from the Saint Etienne newsletter.
