[News] Twelfth Night to release “Fact And Fiction 40th Anniversary” on September 2022

The 2022 40th Anniversary 3CD version of Twelfth Night’s classic studio album, released on CD on the band’s own label for the first time.

It was this more edgy new wave quality that made me love it, and made a big impact on me. The album’s epic opening track We Are Sane, for me, remains their masterpiece.” – Steven Wilson

The 3rd disc holds the real treasures… entirely lives up to its title… comprehensive and lovingly curated.” – PROG Magazine.

Includes a 24-page booklet, with previously unseen photos, scans of Geoff Mann’s handwritten lyrics and sketches, memorabilia, and extensively detailed sleevenotes.
