La bande à Tim Booth va rééditer son classique Laid et son jumeau expérimental Wah Wah, à l’occasion de leurs 20 ans. Les deux opus avaient enregistrés simultanément sous la houlette de Brian Eno au Real World Studio de Peter Gabriel en 1993 avant de voir le jour respectivement le 5 octobre 1993 puis le 1er octobre 1994. On annonce pas moins de quatre versions « deluxe » différentes : un coffret de quatre disques réunissant les deux albums ainsi que son traditionnel lot de démos, raretés et versions live, Laid en version double CD dont un rempli de titres bonus, ainsi que des versions vinyles de chacun des deux albums.
