Looks like pure garbage and 100% false.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

Most likely fake by a well informed fan judging by a couple of the rare tracks.
But at the same time I wouldn’t be surprised if this turned out to be real

Exactly.

.

It kind of reminds me of the fan reactions when the excerpt from "(There’ll Never B) Another Like Me" was released. lol

It could very well be new estate tactic to try and upp sales or something. Give you a sampling of the Vault in EP form so you want the full box or something or other.

My fear: there is some legal shit prevent us to release a D&P SDE with vault tracks, so we release a Deluxe with a "EP" as gift. :/

Yes I think it's the only reason why they would release a vault tracks EP.

It doesn't make sense to not be able to release D&P SDE with vault tracks since they're able to release 6 vault tracks on the EP (if it's true). So I don't think there's anything that prevents them from releasing vault tracks, at least not from the D&P era.

Something about it seems genuine to me.

Hopefully if it is real then it's just a taster for the full set

if this is real it's abysmal and spells trouble for the actual SDE (or just deluxe?)

I hate to say it but this looks legit to me...

it says it serves as a companion piece to the deluxe edition

so its probably just a sampler of some sort

or an EP option if you dont want to buy the whole SDE

The Reddit users account dates back to 2016. However they only have one post and it's this... With no sources, despite being asked to provide them.

With that said, the title of their post is "hmm what's this". So they're not specifically claiming this is an upcoming release or that they have inside information.

What the shame if all this project is finalized with a ten trax or so of Vault trax in it....not a dollar from me u can be sure of that...i was a big supporter of SOTT SDE .....i can't support a project with trax from the vault reduced at minimun !!

Or maybe there is no SDE at all. Just a Deluxe Edition (with no Vault Tracks) and this companion EP that you would buy separately.

The only reason I can think of why they would choose not to release D&P SDE is that they still thinks it costs too much to produce SDE and they're expecting poor sales.I really hope that's not the case and I guess we will find out soon when there's an announcement, hopefully next week.

Londell promised new music was on the way so the estate better deliver something substantial unless they want a bunch of backlash from the fans.

IIRC, he did mention that "the long awaited boxset" was going to be release so in any case, there'll be a "boxset" no matter what's in it.

A free companion to the basic remaster as a 'Look what you're missing!' tactic, to hopefully sell a few more SDEs?

That'd be pretty smart, so probably no. lol

It says companion to the deluxe edition. Not a super deluxe.

Now it seems like it'll be like 6 tracks NOT on the SDE so you gotta double dip.

So far there is no concrete evidence for a Super Deluxe.

We know for sure a deluxe edition is ready to go as we've seen it.

This is a companion to the deluxe edition.

This implies to me that there is no Super Deluxe.

I'm pessimistic so that's how I read it.
