Release Date Friday 20th November 2026

2026 marks the 10th anniversary of Channel The Spirits – the debut album by The Comet Is
Coming.
This maximalist reissue includes the original album, the Prophecy and Death To The Planet
EPs and various rarities from the era including four previously unreleased tracks.
‘Late Night Party Jam 2’ has been added to the fabled Ancient Tapes – the earliest known
Comet recordings from The Total Refreshment Centre in 2013, where Comet were the unofficial
house band.
There are also searing live renditions of ‘Final Eclipse’ and ‘Space Carnival’ and a session
version of ‘Neon Baby’ recorded for John Kennedy’s Xfm show.
The triple vinyl version available to retail will be limited to just 1500 units for the universe on
translucent violet, blue and orange discs in printed inner and die-cut outer sleeves, plus a die-
cut O-card slipcase and a 60 x 60cm double-sided fold-out poster. NON-RETURNABLE.
For full sensory overload, each of the sleeves is printed on both outer and inner surfaces.
The double CD supersedes the 2017 2CD special edition, adding Death To The Planet and all
the bonus material, packaged in a gatefold card wallet with printed inners and a fold-out poster
booklet.
Channel The Spirits was a 2016 Mercury Music Prize shortlisted Album Of The Year.
