i sat throught that cra p show for nearly an hour and no ad came up on the tv. no chance of top 5 for this album. TBH i'm doubtful this album will reach top 10 simply because its had no mainstream coverage. sorry to sound all grumpy but it's true. AATW have let us down too many times before, the problem is, there's no other dance label worthy of going to.

this is going to become one of my favourite scooter albums ever and its not gonna get the attention it deserves. this overtakes JAOTW by a mile and instead the choose to put an ad with logical song and JAOTW on it. BIG let down :(

Middle of the new release section in Asda and priced at £8.71

And it does still include the "14 brand new tracks logo"

But it has 12 tracks, or does it really have 14 tracks ???

My album arrived today from Play.com, there are definetly only 12 tracks on the CD. TSAMH is the same version as on the German album and not the radio edit.

That's understandable considering the next confirmed single in the UK is TSAMH. That is of course unless they've made the mistake of making another erroneous announcement. I can't see the transgression of false advertising going down unnoticed amongst consumers.

Thanks for the pic and the info about the tracks ;) I still highly prefer the German UTROTT cover, it looks far more interesting and gives a high quality feeling. This UK cover is more of a bright coloured composition to stand out on the shelves, which in fact isn't a bad idea, but still I would have prefered it to have the German cover. The UK cover is not bad, but far not as good as the German one, the pic you made proves that again for me. But I can live with it, I have the German one too, so no problem really, and for the collection a different cover is even more interesting than only a different record label printed on the CD.
My UK UTROTT CDs should arrive this week I think, they are already dispatched as stated by amazon ;)

I have mine today :)
One disappointment is the lack of a good quality booklet of the type we got with the German edition - as you can see from Daniel's photograph, this is just a folded insert with the track listing, no lyrics and only one photgraph (the reverse side not shown in Dans pic just lists the DVD tracks), also the paper quality is not anything like as good as the German booklet.
The main CD does not look very impressive, the DVD is also called Caught By The Radar, which seems much more approprate to the contents of the German DVD than a DVD with a lot of videos on it.
It certainly lacks the style of the German release, and to me looks a bit cheap - but as its selling for around £8.99 I guess it is not expensive. Also the fact that the front cover says 14 brand new tracks.....
That said, for the price you get a lot of great music and 40 great music videos which is very very good value - so on content I would mark this release very highly, on value for money I would rate it very high. but for presentation not so high

No lyrics in the booklet 8| Than it's indeed "cheap" :S :( ..... Are all UK AATW CD's so nowadays, or is just Scooter's CD looking so "cheap" this time?..... The music is indeed the most important, but a nice presentation helps too IMO. Probably they made it as cheap as possible, in order to be able to sell it for a low price, so that it get's high sales numbers ;)

Yeah, but even if it was made cheap, they still could have but the better cover. Or at least another picture from the photoshoot, I don't like this cover at all. AATW has dissapointed us once again, making Scooter look like the most commercial thing on the planet, which is unfortunate, as this is my favorite Scooter album, and deserves good attention. Hell, for the advert instead of the stupid green effect, they could have just used a dubbed over version of the German one... makes it look good and a lot classier, not arcade music.

firstly, i've been watching a LOT more TV than i usually do and i've seen the ad once. the chris moyles parody album has more promotion than this. this album is literally going to be 'under the radar.'

i know i complain often but this is beyond the pail for AATW, Cascada produce a piss-poor album and get all the promo under the sun yet Scooter's release gets sweet FA! I think Scooter should move to a non-dance album. I actually think they can wave goodbye to a UK tour if this doesn't do well, mark my words.
