a-ha / Cast in Steel box in the UK

The metal ‘fanbox’ edition of a-ha‘s forthcoming album Cast in Steel is now available to pre-order outside of Germany.

The ‘collector’s edition’ set features the standard 2CD deluxe and adds a ‘Chromo cardboard printed photo’ of the band and an A2 poster. Apparently, unlike the version available from Amazon Germany, the UK version doesn’t include the the ‘fanpass’ which gives you earlier access to a a German Tour concert in 2016 (you need to have a ticket in the first place). That is effectively the lanyard, so if that’s a deal breaker, order via Germany. On the upside, it’s a few quid cheaper in the UK and in fact cheaper at the moment than the normal 2CD deluxe – go figure.

More information on the various editions of Cast in Steel here. The album is released on 4 September 2015.
