For one, MTM 20 isn’t until 2027 and the album didnt come out until mid May 2007.
Many many bands put out box sets or anniversary editions of albums. It doesn’t mean the entire focus has to be on that and they are going to embark on some world tour for the box set using Chester’s vocals lol. If there is a single that gets popular, it will be just like Lost, and the band can play it live. What’s the problem? All of the music is already recorded and it’s really just for hardcore fans. It doesn’t interfere with LP2 at all. Plus it’s really the perfect time since the band will be ending the From Zero era most likely at the end of 2026. All a box set for MTM will do in the first half of 2027 is get the band some sales and satisfy hardcore fans. It won’t be as big as Lost was probably but that’s ok, MTM and ATS deserve a set. Even beyond demos and songs we never heard, there is a lot of MTM songs that fans want on all streaming services, and live too. It’s no brainer for me. Warner will want to do it too and they handle most of the packaging and probably compiling the set aside from the new ones Mike picks from the vault to give us (we will probably get like 12 or 13 like with lost demos). Plus, the live shows from MTM are some of the best: we need those
