This could be pre-ordered through Universal Germany by the end of October 2019, when the album had not a name and artwork yet, as "ltd. vinyl edition (german version)". In an e-mail in march 2020, they announced the title, as well as it would include a "silver 12" vinyl with regular track listing", a "black standard 7" vinyl incl. bonus audio" and an "alternate sleeve".Actually, this is a black vinyl LP, including a one -sided red 7" with a slipcover around the gatefold with a 16 page booklet.
On 8th february 2021, Universal Germany announced in an e-mail to all buyers that "in the coming weeks we will provide you with a free of charge copy of the Silver Vinyl. We cannot confirm an exact date, but plan to do ship this to you in the first 2 weeks of March" (sic).
The repressed silver vinyl edition that was sent around march 10, 2021 can be found here: Steven Wilson - The Future Bites
The bonus audio on the 7" single is a "previously unreleased Steven Wilson demo recorded March 2006 during 'Fear Of Blank Planet' writing sessions. Remixed in August 2020"
